More Than My Dearest Friend

More Than My Dearest Friend written by:  BookRookie12

Summary:  Elizabeth's father takes his six-year-old second daughter along with her older sister to London to tour and enjoy the parks, and, with her lively spirit and infectious smile, she makes a new friend. They grow up together, until a quarrel between them creates estrangement. When they meet again, four years later, what happens?

Ramble:  I don't know why but I really like stories where they meet as children.  While I don't have a copy of that story, I am thinking about getting a copy to read again.  Because of the change in how they meet, parts of the story changed as well.  There are some more scenes that make your cringe, and a few where your heart just goes out for the character.  Everything works out in the end, and I believe the author has a story that focuses on the children from this story.  For now, I'll probably wait for that to be a complete story before trying it... I find that I don't like waiting for the next chapter to be posted most of the time.

Letters Received

Letters Received written by:  Lise Fahn277

Summary:  When Frederick discovers a secret that Anne left behind at Kellynch Hall, things come to an early (and altogether happy) resolution. A light-hearted, mostly fluffy what-if.

Ramble:  A short story that changes the whole story.  It is amazing how much one small thing can change the whole novel.  Very short, sweet, and to the point.
