Redeeming Love - I grabbed it from a pile of books to take to CA years ago. Read the whole thing on the plane. So good!

I don't think I have a particular favorite but I am reading a wonderful one right now. It is a book of short stories called "The Secrets of a Fire King" by Kim Edwards. The book is simply amazing! Each story is so inspirational and pulls at emotions. I have enjoyed each of the stories. It is interesting because I never usually ready books with short stories. My mother purchased this one for me and said it sounded good from what was written on the back. Boy was she right! When I come home tomorrow (I have been studying in Mexico for 5 weeks) I am going to give the book to her so she can enjoy it as well.

Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver, but it's a tie with In the Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez!

Anything mystery -- or any cookbook -- or any farm related book -- or any book in the Miss Julia series -- or.......... really, just any well written, plain good book!

Pickin' a favorite book is like pickin' your favorite child. Duh! But, I love Karen Kingsbury's series about the Baxter family. Which is unusual for me. Usually, I like historical fiction rather than the more modern stuff.

Oldie but goodies ~ Anne of Green Gables, Old Yeller, Cheaper by the Dozen, any (old) biographies.

But if I must...

Of all time: The Secret Garden.

Grown-Up Book: Persuasion

Non-Fiction Book: (new favourite!) The Private World of Tasha Tudor - she truly was the most amazing lady, I admire her so much.

Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said.

Hmm... another tough one. I LOVE books! Some of my favorites (and I will read them again and Again and AGAIN!!!) are "The Flame and the Flower" by Kathleen Woodiweiss (I actually read the cover right off that book and had to get a new copy!!), "Fires of Winter" by Johanna Lindsay, "Whitney My Love," by Judith McNaught, "A Knight in Shining Armor" by Jude Devaraux and "Wings of a Dove" by Elaine Barbieri. GREAT love stories. Like I've said before, I'm a sucker for a good ROMANCE!!! ~~ Tracy ~~

Little Women or Anne of Green Gables or Memoirs of a Geisha. Please don't make me choose just one! :)
