As with reading two other series by Ms. Strong, I have become invested in a new set of lives. I have come to care for them, cheer for them, cry with them, be upset for them, be proud of them only to realize, grudgingly, that they are not the "real" people that they have become to me.  In this collection, Mimi described quite well the mixture of confidence and fear that I had when  proposing to my girl (of 34 years now) though, thankfully, I did not tend to throw up under stress.  I would like to hear about the future adventures of these fictional people I have come to know, but I am satisfied with imagining...  as we are all left to do with Darcy and Elizabeth and many other fictitious couples. Those dear couples are now inspiring other people to pen sequels because of the desire to experience more of the couples seemingly real lives.  Perhaps that will occur with Mimi's creations and I hope it will not include zombies!  That's really weird.Please tell me that I'm not the only sappy fellow-of-advanced-age who devours this traditionally non-male stuff!
