    Hi Patti,
    I'm just about 40 pages from the end of it. I've liked learning about the Amish, since I'm not aware of Oklahoma having any Amish and knew very little about them. Is Pennsylvania's large Amish population close to where you live?
    Have a great Christmas!

    Hi Patti...I've looked at the books you posted and we do have similar tastes. My shelf right now has a lot of the books I recommend to my high school students. Many are considered Young Adult, but really cross the threshold to adult interest too. Right now I'm reading In the Woods by Tana French and I like the story but she does "over-describe"! Get to the good stuff! And the book I've chosen for my book club is by Wally Lamb - Wishin' and Hopin'...a Christmas story. Keep reading!

    Thanks! I've got several books lined up that I want to read first, but will try to read Jodi Picoult and Tawni O'Dell soon.

    Patti,
    A friend suggested I read one of Jodi Picoult's books. Her suggestion for a first book was "The Pact." Since I can see you've read several, which one would you recommond?

    I have read My Sisters Keeper. Thought it was quite good. I have too many all-time favorites, so I just say my favorite genre is historical fiction. ; -)

    Hi Patti, thanks for your note. I read both the Poisonwood Bible and Three Cups of Tea. I think you'll like both!
