Both are really good. Jeanette Stingley - Women's Lit http://womenslit.bellaonline.com

Her books are complex, original, and well-written!

If you like that you may like Homebody by Orson Scott Card! Jeanette Stingley - Women's Lit http://womenslit.bellaonline.com

I let my husband read it first, and he's virtually dancing around waiting to talk to me about it. Last edited by Mary - Irish Culture; 02/14/10 09:51 PM. Mary Sweeney Irish Culture Editor

It is slow going but the descriptions of people, life and times and scenery in New Hampshire can't be beat. I'll stick with it. Thanks for posting this thread. Before this I read The Shack and it was life-changing for me with its spiritual insights. The story of loss was hard to digest, though. Last edited by Susan Kramer; 02/15/10 06:02 AM.

Apparently, this novel is a sequel, I will read his other books. From the opening sentence, the book takes off fast... I like that. Earlier, I read the SHACK. OMG!! I have highly recommended and bought this book for friends/family as a gift. I look forward to this book being a movie one day in the near future. It is life altering, or at the very least thought provoking. Believeable characters and story. With 25 inches of snow this month, so far, I have very little else to do besides ride. LOL
