    I thought this was a very good interview with Roxanne. We are looking forward to her coming to our church (Colonial) in Cary, NC this November. I love her books and I appreciate her writing skills. The most important treasure Roxanne possesses is her trust in God and His perfect plan for her life! She is an encourager and friend to all she meets! God bless you, Roxie! Sincerely, June Bowles :-)

    Roxanne's books are inspiring. I live in ND and grew up in a small town in Minnesota. If I didn't know better, I would say that I grew up in Brewster. When I read Roxanne's books (I have read them all) I find myself so wrapped up in the stories that I don't want to put the book down. Each of the books are unique and can be read without reading the others in the series. It is much more fun to read them all and identify with characters that play a role in another story. By the end of Roxanne's final story in the Brewster series, I will feel like one of the residents of Brewster who meets at Vicki's cafe to chit chat about "what's going on". I love the stories, Roxie. I can't wait to see what your next project brings us.

    I absolutely love her writing. By the time I finished AFTER ANNE, I was hooked! BECOMING OLIVIA was another favorite of mine (although I like them all) because I've had experience with depression and feel that her portrayal was so true to life. I'm looking forward to the newest book!

    A good interview with Roxanne. Her books do tell the stories that many of us hide away in our hearts, actually fearing that we'd be found out.

    Reading Roxanne's books is like living in Brewster, I almost forget I'm reading. I really enjoyed Becoming Olivia as I had a very similar depressive period. She describes so well how one feels and how one's world looks when one is depressed. And as she says, the book is not depressing. I've also worked in a nursing home, and found her knowledge of the scenes in Jan, so true to life. She must research well. I'm looking forward to the last visit to Brewster in the next book.
