I enjoyed your review - I read one somewhere else and didn't get the fact that it was a memoir - I thought it was fiction. Not sure how I missed that! I really enjoy memoirs so I will add this to the list. Thanks and keep up the blogging.The Bumbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08334162339045336577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-55078470480485774892010-05-15T00:20:51.739-04:002010-05-15T00:20:51.739-04:00So glad to read that things are getting better.

I've been on the fence about this one but now I'm definitely going to read it. In the past few years, I've really made a point to give that extra bit to others and you're right, it really does make you feel better, too.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-78904698377569191532010-05-14T20:28:39.098-04:002010-05-14T20:28:39.098-04:00Great review!

Nice to hear from you ... hope things are going a little better for you.<br /><br />This sounds like a powerful book ... though I cannot imagine being able to write it so soon after the events. But for some people, that is probably how they deal with things and "make sense" of something so senseless. Thanks for a great review ... I want to read this now!Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-45691527465663491392010-05-13T19:48:45.628-04:002010-05-13T19:48:45.628-04:00A wonderful review.

I will be in touch soon - I've been working on an email to you and just need to close it & send it (before it becomes a book!)<br /><br />ESME: Hi! It's great to see you! Thank you for visiting me and my blog! It's great to be posting here again and making time to visit some blogs (I'll be by soon!).<br />This is a great book although emotionally difficult but also uplifting.<br /><br />JOANN: Thank you for stopping by Joann! It's great to see you! Things are a little better and I have plans in place and things I'm working on too to improve things. I am personally feeling better and I was really missing posting on my blog and reading other bloggers and interacting with bloggers. I needed to get back here. I know somedays I won't get here just as some days won't be so great but other days will be terrific and I will be able to spend some of the day posting & visiting.<br />This is a very emotional read but not all sad and troubling. It's eye-opening and uplifting in some respects and worth reading!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-27894529473493727302010-05-13T10:32:56.060-04:002010-05-13T10:32:56.060-04:00BERMUDAONION: Hi!

I have really missed all of the blogs I visited and all of the bloggers I "talked" with and I've been trying to get back here for a week or so!<br />MAKING TOAST is a terrific book and I found it to be very emotionally riveting. There is so much more I could have mentioned in my review but I didn't want to give everything away. But there are some scenes with the children talking about their mom and her death that just grab you. But because they are children, they still have fun during certain situations and it's great to read about that too. I hope you read the book, Kathy!<br /><br />SANDY: Hi! It's so good to see you! I stopped by your blog and it's looking fantastic!<br />I agree with you that writing helps many people cope with very emotional things. I've never read anything by Roger Rosenblatt before but I thought his writing was wonderful andI'm glad that he took us along on his journey of dealing with Amy's death and beginning to heal a little bit. I hope you have a chance to read it someday!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-610207526948458362010-05-13T10:23:10.097-04:002010-05-13T10:23:10.097-04:00KATHY: Hi!

I'm trying to get back to the blogging community as I very much miss all of you. Things are slowly improving but I've realized it's going to take a while for everything to really stabilize and improve...But I'm getting there!<br /><br />NATALIE W: Thank you for visiting my blog! Making Toast really is a wonderful book although very emotional. I highly recommend it!<br />Thank you for commenting on my adorable cats. I wish I lived close to you because there are 4 8-week old kittens in my area who are almost ready for adoption. They are SOOOO CUTE! I am going to post photos of them soon. It's recommended that, if possible, kittens be adopted in pairs, at least, so they have a cat similar in age to play with and learn with. Kittens learn a lot from each other and get their socialization skills from eachother. And it's great fun to watch 2 or more of them play together! Good luck finding some kittens and please post photos when you adopt them!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-5805041724630252402010-05-13T06:01:04.054-04:002010-05-13T06:01:04.054-04:00Hi Amy!
