Hi Kinga,
I am sorry if I have caused offense by reaching out, but I do believe there's an overlap in literary interests between us and sincerely thought that you would enjoy my work. It is of course your prerogative if you have decided not to read my novels.
All the best,

On a Quiet Street by Carla Kovach
"It's always the quiet ones....

Secrets and lies are the name of the game in this shocking and gripping psychological thriller. Just when I thought I knew what was going on, Carla Kovach turned the tables on me! I love it when that happens. I found thi" Read more of this review »

C-shaw Glad to be your Goodreads friend, Lars. I'm sorry to say that I English is my only language.
I see that you're currently reading an Iain Pears book, and I'll look forward to your review of it.

I actually spend way more time writing my own work than I do on writing reviews, but once in a while I do find the time for a couple of sentences....


Stacey Camp Thanks for being my friend! Looking forward to reading your reviews!

Kyle Thank you for the friend invite, kind sir!

Lars Jerlach Hej Jacob,

Ja jeg tænkte vi havde lidt mere tilfælles....Måske især den literære smag....Jeg tror nu også at du vil finde min bog meget interessant, specielt hvis du holder om fyrtårne.....og om de personer som arbejder i dem.....
Bedste hilsener,

Lars


message 2: by Jacob

Jacob Overmark Hej Lars, tak for indbydelsen. Du er naturligvis velkommen her i mit bibliotek, vi har så afgjort samme literære smag på flere områder. Om end jeg ikke har læst din bog har jeg set et par fyrtårne eller 4 i New England og det tæller vel også lidt.
Bedste hilsner Jacob


Nikki "The Crazie Betty" V. Thanks for the add Lars! Looking forward to talking books, your TBR pile is a gold mine :)
