Herectic Queen

This was a great book. We had read Nefertiti and decided to read this one, although you don't have to read Nefertiti it understand Heretic Queen. The story was great and different from the other book. I loved the history involved and the characters. It's differently a good read.

The Forgotten Garden

When I first started reading I thought I would not be able to keep characters straight, and what time they were in, but it was done so well it was easy to follow. I was always left wanting to know more after she went to a different character. I loved the settings and time periods all nicely tied together. I am hoping to get more of Kate Morton's books.

The Help

I liked the book and that it was written from a different point of view than what you would expect. While I read many reviews about how good the book was, I would necessarily consider one of my all time favorites. It was funny and enjoyable, but sometimes found it slow. I"m not sure I really liked the ending because it left me wanting to know more, but maybe that is a characteristic of a good book is you want more.

Saving CeeCee Hunicutt

It was a veery enjoyable read. I read it in only a few days. Iloved the insightfulness of the ladies in the book. Each came from different place and all were trying to help CeeCee adjust to her new life. There were differently some LOL moments.

Simple Choices

When I started the book I expected it to be about a wife and spousal abuse, while that was included it was not the main focus. It surprised me in the direction it tok. I also did not realize it was based on a true story, that made it even more interesting. The best was the author was a friend of one of our members sister, and we talked with the night of our meeting. It was great to know the real facts and where she changed a few things and shoe the real people were. We loved this this book and I found it a very good read.
