Keeley Murdock is an interior designer in the small down of Madison, Georgia. It&#8217;s the rehearsal dinner for her marriage to a rich, influential young man from a good family.

I loved that so much that I immediately set my sights on the only other book under this name.

		<description><![CDATA[The field of comics, also sometimes known as graphic novels, is dominated by male creators and readers. However, there's been increasing push in the last few decades by women to enter the field and make their mark. Though comics drawn by women are gaining popularity, most are classified as "indie," distributed by small publishers that may not be able to advertise or place volumes in prominent bookstores.

It doesn&#8217;t matter where you left off, or how long it&#8217;s been, you fall right back into friendship as soon as you meet up. Ella Enchanted is one of my favorite books.
