I haven’t gotten around to reading this book yet, but I have seen a lot of good reviews for it. Reading this post really made me want to read it even more. I really enjoy when writer’s talk about their writing process. I don’t expect it to change mine in any way, but it’s really interesting to try to put yourself in someone else’s shoes, even if only for a few moments – to imagine the dreams that created the characters that we love (or hate). It’s really amazing, what authors do when they write.

Great post.

Great! The Lace Reader is on my Goodreads “To-read” list. Fantastic tale from Brunonia re the horse allergy! I can truly relate to that one- must beware of old houses with crumbling plaster! The old house next door to us is about to have a gigantic tree removed, so I must flee the premises before the noise and sawdust begin!!

What a wonderful guest post! I loved this novel just like everyone else. I like how the book started with a dream and that Towner pretty much told the Brunonia that May didn’t deserve her own novel. Knowing that adds even more to the book. Thanks so much for sharing this.

I’m another fan of the book! And I never felt that Towner was a liar…confused, yes, but not an intentional liar.

I’ve read the Lace Reader – it’s a fantastic book. I am a new author and Brunonia has been instrumental in helping me along the path. In addition to a great friend she is truly a great writer. If you haven’t picked up The Lace Reader, get to it! You don’t know what you are missing!
