ramona-quilter Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I have been looking for that one Sandra. I heard that it was good. I just finished Water for Elephants. A wonderful story and a great read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clq-jill Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Try "My Sister\'s Keeper" by Jodi Piccoult (SP?) But only if you have a whole box of tissues on hand at the end. I loved both of "The Secret Life of Bees" and "Water for Elephants". I listened to all these on audiobook (because who has time to read when we are quilting), and the narrators were all very good.

MastiffMomQlt Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I loved that too. She also did "The Mermaid Chair" which was a light, good read as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenjones Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Hey heard a lot about "Saving CeeCee Honeycutt" book, I want to read it, can I get this book online?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkies Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 OMGoodness, I could give you a list of books to read! Yes, "The Secret Life Of Bees" is an excellent read, so is "Water For Elephants". I have read most of the Diana Gabaldon "Outlander" series. Read them a long, long time ago. Interesting that they are making a come-back. (Read them in the '90s) Two books I highly recommend are by Alan Brennert, they are "Honolulu" and "Moloka'i". Both are set from a woman's perspective on Hawaiian history.(I hope that he writes more!) I asked myself, how could a man write from a woman's perspective? However, Mr. Brennert certainly did a very good job. Excellent reads! Love, love most books by Jodi Picoult. I am now reading a book entitled " Inside Of A Dog: What A Dog Sees, Smells, and Knows" by Alexandra Horowitz. If you ever wondered about the world your dog lives in, this is a book for you! What could be a dry scientific book, is written with humor and practicality for an easy read. I am seeing the dogs around me in a whole new light! A friend once said to me, "Do you ever look into their eyes, and wonder who is in there?" Yes, and now I am seeing the world more from their perspective. Explains a lot! Cheers!
