I am a reference librarian living in southwest Ohio. As you might guess from my bookshelf, I have a wide range of reading interests--from Rachel Gibson to Shakespeare, from hard-boiled police procedurals to light romance to classics! I'm never without a book to read and have found myself quickly becoming addicted to this site. It's so much... more »

    I don't know if it's worth buying but it was good. My TBR pile is so huge because of my library not getting many books (or not ordering enough either) so I know how you feel.

    From what she wrote me on my FB email, she's working on a sequel. Can't wait for that one.

    Hi Cathy. It was the best book I've read in ages. She's writing a sequel too. I sent her a message and she's also a friend on Facebook now.

    Hopefully I'll be able to get it soon too. I really enjoyed The Red Tent by her too if you haven't read it.

    I wasn't sure if you were done w/it yet since after I posted I noticed that you rated it already. I loved The Red Tent by her also.

    Hi Cathy. I am the author of The Sandal Maker, a new novel about the public ministry of Jesus. You can read the first chapter by going to scribd.com and searching for the title. I am including here the publisher's notes from Amazon.com. Let me know what you think.


    Product Description
    Caleb, an elderly Jew, leaves the safety of his home in Cana on a mission to find a man he believes is in Jerusalem. Miriam, Caleb’s only remaining child, accompanies him disguised as a boy. In the desolation of the war struck Galilean countryside, father and daughter risk their lives to journey south on the Jordan River trail. As they walk, Caleb intrigues Miriam with a captivating story of his youth that will change her future destiny. A story of a time forty years prior when he became a sandal maker in order to observe a man some called the Miracle Worker. Caleb secretly kept notes of the events he saw and heard as he followed the crowds. With his objective, skeptical point of view, he reveals the fascinating ministry of the one he called the “Master.” Heart pounding perils and the threat of death endanger the two travelers, but nothing could foretell the fate awaiting them in Jerusalem!

    From the Publisher
    A. Michaelson's new novel, The Sandal Maker, takes the reader on a fascinating journey back to the year 70 A.D. in worn torn Palestine. The author creatively weaves two stories together, one in the present, the other in the past. Heartwarming, enlightening and tragic, The Sandal Maker paints a portrait of one man's life and his involvement in how the gospel came to be.

    Hi there! I'm just dropping by to welcome you to The 100+ Book Challenge. I'm sorry but I've been out of town, so your welcome is a bit late. The idea of the group is pretty much self explanatory - try to read 100 or more books in a one year period. If you do have any questions, please feel free to send a message to me or Tenia. In the meantime, good luck reaching your goal!

    Hi Cathy. It's taking me forever to read this book for some reason. I finally got to page 200 after 6 days. LOL Reminds me of too many other chick lit friendship books but I like it so far.

    Just finished The Ex Mrs. Hedgefund and really enjoyed it. I just picked up Nancy Thayer's Summer House myself.

    Hi Cathy. You have to let me know how Summer House by Nancy Thayer is when you're done w/it. It looks really good and I've loved all of her others.

    Hi Cathy R: Does your library have Playaways in circulation?
    I am enjoying Gone with the Wind on a Playaway I borrowed
    from the library.
