Marriage by Proxy by Sasha Combs

My rating: 1 of 5 stars


I'm sure the author is a lovely, lovely person. However, I'm quite upset that she would try to pass this off as a book. The story sticks in my head because it is so poorly written. I'm all for suspension of disbelief in order to accept a storyline as plausible, but not when I can't get past all the technical errors. Where was the editor?

Dear Readers,

I'm moving over some old (as far back as 2009) posts from the main EIRIC™ site to here. Reason: I'm going with a different direction for the front page. Please feel free to take a look and provide your feedback.

Ms. Rowell (known to a lot of us Soap Opera fans as Drucilla Winters from the Young and the Restless) is an advocate for foster care children. The daughter of a white mother and black father, Ms. Rowell grew up in Maine and was a child in the foster care system for 18 years. If you haven't already, learn more about the foster care system and what you can do to help. The following link will take you to Ms. Rowell's foundation - The Rowell Foster Children's Positive Plan (RFCPP).

 Dear CIA, take note. Sandra Bullock managed to adopt a baby boy without ever appearing on the paparazzi’s radar. If she can do that, surely you can find Bin Laden. Anyway, congratulations Ms. Bullock and have fun being mom to 3 ½ month old cutie pie Louis Bardo. Louis is now joining the ranks of the estimated 28% of adopted children who differ in race or Hispanic origin from their adoptive parents.
