Must I say that I'm in love? I think you can tell. Makes me want to go to Samoa and see if I can feel the culture as I felt it in this book. I didnt want to eat, to do anything but read, but alas! My poor poor stomach just yelled at me so I had to get up and do something productive (I'm at work and have been for 7 hours. Havent done any real work yet and it's about time to go.)Sherrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05132055588504532128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249141384507760517.post-34487663619129983262011-10-20T20:24:42.226+11:002011-10-20T20:24:42.226+11:00i loved everything about this book. im soooo obses...i loved everything about this book. im soooo obsessed over it! i was excited to turn every page to see what was going to happen next. and by the time i was nearing the end i just didnt want it to end. i shouldve waited to all books were out haha!.. but i just couldnt wait over the reviews and so forth!... my dream boy will be DANIEL!.. argh .. he made me cry in that book.. i mean, come on, who cries reading a book and he also made me laugh!! #teamDaniel for life!. but someone else who made me laugh harder was SIMONE!

How and where did you study that interesting concept in Samoa?! Team Simone!<br />Youre the first person to note the strong environmental 'message/theme' in the book. Thank you for identifying that! It was one of those secret undercover missions of mine when i was writing the book. Didnt want to be too obvious or preachy about it but to me, the best descriptor for Nafanua's covenant sisterhood would be that they're Environmental terrorist warriors...with some kickbutt earth powers thrown in. <br />Thank you for a great review, thank you for taking the time to read TELESA!Lani Wendt Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919058977408366122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249141384507760517.post-26169190093885162942011-10-12T02:49:48.236+11:002011-10-12T02:49:48.236+11:00This sounds like a really good book.
