It’s a shame – I thought it started out strong, and then didn’t really go anywhere interesting. But I’m now reading a book all full of Siamese twins and amputated limbs, which is nothing but interesting, and I’m none too pleased with that either. It’s all about finding a happy medium. 🙂

Hi Jenny, I’m glad you enjoyed this. This was a ‘nice’ read for me; nothing bad to say about it, but probably not memorable in the long term as you said.

I like “omphaloskeptic” too! I learned it from – of all things – a spoof of Gilbert & Sullivan’s song about the modern major-general. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂

Well I have heard of the name Pilar (it’s Spanish) but I just had to google omphaloskeptic because I thought you might be making that one up. Thanks for the awesome addition to my vocab! I really like your blog, btw. It took me about five seconds to decide to add you to my feed reader. 🙂
