I certainly don't want anyone to abuse animals in books I read--but it doesn't concern me much as to whether there is a pet in a book or not.Marilyn Meredith a.k.a. F. M.

As far as flawed "heroes" I think flaws make a character both more realistic and interesting.

Block takes you along with him while he completes his contracts, but he makes Keller so interesting, you don't mind what he does for a living. As far as I know, Keller has never killed a dog.Earl Staggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13349667172813175960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-24951000484107839752013-08-12T11:29:39.277-05:002013-08-12T11:29:39.277-05:00I'll give away my hint.

It seems no matter how mean a person seems, if you add an animal to the mix and show love for that animal, the person has redeeming qualities.<br /><br />Morgan Mandel<br />http://www.morganmandel.comMorgan Mandelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10118929301591850918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-85210835301799278382013-08-12T10:23:36.607-05:002013-08-12T10:23:36.607-05:00Hi Morgan,
