If the letters in the web and on the wood did not say "Woe" then why 'Woo"? What is "Woo"?? Did I miss something?

I almost always have a hard time writing reviews, but when I love a book it's even harder.<br /><br /><b>Zibilee</b>, I think you'd really enjoy these.<br /><br /><b>Tracy</b>, You're more than welcome. I highly recommend Penny's mysteries - they are several levels above most mysteries.<br /><br /><b>Josh</b>, I'm going to get over to visit your site soon. <br /><br /><b>Anonymous</b>, there is a connection to Emily Carr's disclosure about her father but it's only a small portion of the book. I have got my mother, sisters, daughter and husband hooked on Penny's books.<br /><br /><b>Joy</b>, Which one was your favorite? I just started Bury Your Dead, too. Let my mom read it first.

(All supposition, I might add, as she never confirmed or denied it, and he died long before anyone else could ask him. So I suppose we'll never know for sure.) Or am I spoiling the plot by asking?<br />Canadian ChickadeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22500980.post-72416464452987631292010-08-20T12:40:27.119-06:002010-08-20T12:40:27.119-06:00So good to see your post about Louise Penny!

It made my day! You are so sweet.<br /><br />You know, I kind of thought they would let me keep it because of Nolan, but she told me I have to send it back. I can understand it some, because they would have to let every reviewer do that too, and that would be a huge cost:)Tracy(bookroomreviews)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00410712936442252103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22500980.post-17047121173757225402010-08-15T18:51:46.857-06:002010-08-15T18:51:46.857-06:00I admit to being a reader that doesn't usually...I admit to being a reader that doesn't usually like mysteries, but your enthusiasm for this series really gets my attention.
