My Thoughts…
Oh my… in true Lynda Renham style I was laughing out loud so
many times while reading Phoebe Smith’s Private Blog. Everything from the writings on the blog to
the characters to the different locations Phoebe visits made me smile and
laugh. Phoebe starts a private blog
which “brat face” manages to change to public while playing on her
computer. She tells her thoughts, her
feelings, and her wishes on this blog much like you would a journal. Then the whole world sees it. It starts a motion again sexual harassment
in the workplace, opens eyes to relationships, and points out some truths in
family relationships.
The friendships in this story really stuck with me. Whether dealing with the loss of a
boyfriend, dating a married man, becoming pregnant, or having a private blog go
public these friends stuck together.
The cheered each other on, consoled them when things didn’t go their
way, and pushed them to be all they could be all without ever expecting
anything in return. I loved their
impromptu get-togethers, whether at Phoebe’s apartment or at a
bar/restaurant. Phoebe and her
friends were TRUE BLUE friends.
The relationship between Harry and Phoebe was my
favorite. She hated him without
giving him a chance because of what she read about him on the internet. Yet, every time she ran into him she
liked him more and more. Their
relationship was slow, never easy, and so enjoyable to the reader. I
liked how Harry persisted on helping Phoebe when she was in need, a car jump, a
date, or a meal. I was definitely hoping that Phoebe would
open her eyes are realize that Harry was a good guy before he gave up on
her.
I definitely recommend picking up your own copy of Phoebe
Smith’s Private Blog.
