There were two other Michelles in my class and I was acquainted with both, but not chummy. After I became a Christian (after high school) I hung out with another twenty-something named Michelle and when people saw us they called us the two Michelles. We were both blondes, too, and about the same height. :)
About the book:
After decades out of touch, four fifty-something childhood friends have returned to the little coastal town of Clifden, Oregon, where they grew up. They look forward to supporting one another as they reinvent their lives. But second acts can be a challenge, and each woman feels the stretch. Widowed lawyer Janie struggles to leave the past behind and move forward. Emerging artist Marley wrestles with “painter’s block.” Empty-nester Abby fears no one takes her seriously, while beautiful Caroline has all she can do to keep her Alzheimer’s-patient mother at home…and wearing clothes! Plus, old resentments and new misunderstandings are beginning to strain the friendships they all count on. Can the Four Lindas sisterhood continue to thrive in the close quarters of one little hometown?

Wendy, my mom graduated the same year and she is a Wendy also.
As for me, there were no other Hollys in my class. However, there was one a year ahead of me and there was a Hollie in my brother's grade. The weirdest thing was in my church camp there was a girl with my same first and last name. I only met her once, but it was confusing when they'd call off names for mail.

I graduated school overseas. The entire school only had about 150 people, and nobody else had my name.
I have run into people after school with my name though. I think it's fun.
This still sounds like an interesting book. leesmithwriting@yahoo.com

I went to a Christian School. There were only about 6 in my graduating class. However, I was the only Abigail in the whole school. Never can remember hearing the name before my daughter started in scouts then I met one other in her troop. And since have met a few more, but the name isn't that common.
My daughter would love it if I won this book though. thanks
