Hello, I read the books back around 2010-2012. My daughter and I started reading them at the same time when she was a teen. She devoured them before me and when she finished one she would beg me to get the next and the next until we had them all. We were so moved by these books and feel they changed us as they do with most people that experience the books. Since 2013 I have been divorced and then was in a relationship with a guy that didn’t get the Anastasia dream. I am single now and would love to part of an Anastasia living community, and maybe even have a partner again. My daughter and I may team up and get property together.  Both of my daughters have the same love of gardening and self sufficiency that I do. No grandchildren…yet. I like to make things with wood, garden, play outside, and I have way too many houseplants. I have a website where I showcase my artistic endeavor for the past 20 years. bjchristian.com. I am so glad to have found this community.
