--and I haven't even read it yet. I'm in an unfortunate moderately large city with frighteningly few independent book stores (none of which had this book in stock). Due to some minor annoyances with Amazon, I hadn't ordered the book yet, (almost did last night but then you know some 18 month old decided to help while typing in the credit card number, and milk needed to be in a sippy-cup NOW and you know I never got back to it. Then, my wonderful coworker, who returned to work today after a 2 week visit to her mother in England, REMEMBERED and brought me a copy of Knife. Oh, my, but the cover is WONDERFUL. I'll be back to join the discussion after I read. But I wanted to come just gush over that lovely cover. It's...WOW!
