I just finished reading Same Kind of Difference as Me and laughed and cried through several chapters also. This is not the type of book I normally read, although I must admit I read anything except science fiction, but lean towards mysteries. I try to read 1 - 2 books a week and use our local library frequently. I am a member of Friends of the Library, work our monthly breakfast, and our yearly book sale. We also have a personal library of approximately 4,000 books in our home. I can't remember ever not having my nose in a book.
