Booking Through Thursday asks:
Think about your favorite authors, your favorite books . . . what is it about them that makes you love them above all the other authors you’ve read? The stories? The characters? The way they appear to relish the taste of words on the tongue? The way they’re unafraid to show the nitty-gritty of life? How they sweep you off to a new, distant place? What is it about those books and authors that makes them resonate with you in ways that other, perfectly good books and authors do not?

Great way to put it! I like the recipe. Thanks for sharing. Now I go and cook it..
Excellent recipe (though most times I could do without the romance unless exceptionally well-written)!
You sure know how to condense!
Great answer. I’d just add a soupçon of suspense to make it perfect!
Sounds great!
A “no-fail” recipe, if ever I saw one. ;o)
What a great recipe! I’d go with it.
Mine’s up

Oh this is the only kind of recipe I like to follow
I love your recipe! And I will add for me, “what I want at that very moment!” for sometimes something will resonate and another day the same thing isn’t working for me. What changed? The words are the same…!
A definite winner!
Great recipe!
I might also add: setting in another time and/or culture.
