If you liked this book, you might like Sandra Dallas' The Persian
Pickle Club. It's about a group of women who get together to make
quilts, and is set back in the 30's (depression era).
For the last couple of years, I've been choosing an author, and
reading all of her novels. I also liked Sandra's The Diary of Mattie
Spenser; Kaye Gibbons' Charms for The Easy Life; On the Occasion of my
Last Afternoon; A Virtuous Woman; and Anna Quindlan's One True Thing;
Black and Blue.
There are so many good books available! I've enjoyed several that are
included in Oprah's book club. Also, if you go to Amazon.com, you can
read lots of book reviews. They even link similar types/styles of
fiction, so if you like one author, you can find something of interest
fairly easily. Then go check out the books at the public library!
Sandra Dallas has a new book, Alice's Tulips, which I have on reserve
at the library. Hope to get it read very soon!
Hope this helps you.
