This is my second book by Dianne and I loved going on this adventure. She creates wonderful, lovable, quirky characters that become like friends. This story was a real up and down journey that kept me curious and entertained. On to the next one!!
The story and characters in The Never List engaged my interest, maybe even my heart! One of my favorite things was a nod to one of the key scenes in Wilson's book The Cake List, another excellent read. I'm looking forward to the release of The Paper List.
