Ballantine Books, 2001
Accurate, Inspiring, Absolutely Lovely Read
+ From one ferriner to another... + above chick lit
Being from the Big Stone Gap area myself, I found this book to be an absolute joy. Like the author, I now live in a large city and this book really took me back home and made me realize all over again that as long as you have happiness (and yes, you can find it at 35) you can live happily in a ...

The Sister Circle (The Sister Circle Series #1) 14 reviews Vonette Bright, Nancy Moser
Tyndale House Publishers, 2002
You will want to join the circle!
+ Surrendered To God + A wonderful, warming read!
This is a fun and joyous read about a group of women living in a boarding house who discover what real sisterhood means. It is sweet, but not saccharine, compassionate and helpful, but most of all fun. A friend's husband read it and just could not stop laughing. Everyone I have loaned it to has ...

Excuse Me for Asking 2 reviews Janis Arnold
Algonquin Books, 1997
An entertaining book along the line of the Ya Ya's
This is the first book I have read by Janis Arnold and I hope that she writes more! A few times I had to decide that maybe that could happen, but I have never known anyone to have that exact experience. However, I was willing to follow the incident to the end, and I was glad I did. People who ...

Great BOOK!
+ Sometimes the only way to move forward is by going back... + Excellent
I bought this book for my mom, she's 85. The author is one of her all time favorites (mine too) and she loves the story. Of course, you can't go wrong with a Debbie Macomber story if you're looking for warmth, romance and good taste in a wonderfully well written book.

Emily Ever After 54 reviews Anne Dayton, May Vanderbilt
Broadway, 2005
Fun, light read with a Christian twist.
Of the three novels that these authors have written, this one is by far my favorite. However, I'd like to note that I have enjoyed all three books because they are all funny and touching, with main characters who are Christians, but who have very real struggles with living in our secular culture. ...
