| Thank you, Cobbsouth! That's a terrific suggestion, and one I hadn't thought of. That would be the perfect bridge for where I am right now in my Dutch. I will definitely look for your books! |

Glad to be of help! The English versions are out of print, but they're readily (and cheaply) available online. Here are the titles, along with their Dutch counterparts:
Don't Bet on Love/Hij is al leuk
Blame It on Love/Ik ben liever dan hij

Thanks Cobbsouth! I especially appreciate your including the Dutch titles. That's another interesting problem I have -- trying to figure out what title matches up with what book. It is a process that is sometimes amusing, sometimes baffling.
I would have never guessed that the Dutch would translate your titles the way they did.
Thanks again! |

It can be...interesting, to say the least! One of my books was translated into French, and I can actually read bits and pieces of it--just enough to say, "I NEVER wrote that!"
And as for the cover designs--don't get me started! I think the Dutch covers are cute, but the Polish ones are hideous! I guess they've got marketing people there who know what will sell, but I'll have to admit, I can't see the appeal.
