Thanks for accepting my friend request. We have a lot of books in common across the genres.
Thanks for accepting my friend request, Tara.
Thanks so much for the friendvite and the lovely note, Tara. I really appreciate your taking the time to write something about what happened, as it's been a bit of a zoo here lately. Aside from all that, I look forward to chatting books with you, too! :)
