A Great Book!

I just finished reading The Mermaid Chair by Sue Monk Kidd and loved it!  She also wrote The Secret Life of Bees which I enjoyed also.

I haven't been reading much in the last few months but I know this book is going to be the beginning of my summer reading marathon.  It's already too hot  to work in my flower gardens, so I 'll have lots of time to read.  Let me know if you have any recommendations.

  3. I loved this book and that the novel was narrated by a teenager and an intelligent teenager, at that. The essence of the spirituality is magnificent. But I wonder why the author used the language she did. I think she could have written a much better book if she had found "tasteful" ways to say the same things. Just my thought on what I really thought was a breathtaking story!

    I'll think about that recommendation...

  6. hi, I liked those too. I like to read and get suggestions from others. This blogger has a really good book list....http://anniejoysletters.blogspot.com/
    The Help (soon to be a movie) is a popular read for quite a while on the best seller list, and I liked Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter. Happy summer reading.
