That’s a great book Karen!

Both your books sound good
Love to read. Has anyone read the woman by Kristin Hannah? Great author. Also read all my secrets by Lynn Austin and the divine proverb of struesel by Sara Bruns Wald, and a book by a friend Elizabeth Wehman when the world shouts loud. Love recommendations from other readers.
Farmgirl friends are fun. Farmgirl of the month 8/2016 and 9/2019

Faith & a Simple Life by Julie A. Murphree. Love the way Julie writes, like sitting across from a friend talking and I met her on this forum! Simplicity in my life is what I crave and this adds faith with it but not preachy.

I finished the book last night, Wanda Sue. I don’t know how I feel about it…not sure why. I usually read books that have the fairy tale ending and aren’t as heavy topic wise. But I would have liked to see the end a bit different or to have an epilogue. :)
Rae, I will have to check out that book! :)

Here is a Book that Jean Pici is just finished reading and wanted me to share it with you:
Just finishing up a really good read, "Briar Club" by Kate Quinn - set in McCarthy era Washington D.C. the bonds formed by a diverse group of ladies in a dilapidated boarding house. Farmgirls, it has EVERYTHING - mystery, political intrigue, romance, action, murder, bigotry, the heartbreak of lost love, enduring loyalty, lies, incredibly strong women and some great recipes. LOL. Give it a try. I think you'll love it!
Thank you Jean I might need to read this one.
Big Hugs,
Debbie

I just finished reading "The Lion Women of Tehran" written by Marjan Kamali. It begins in 1953 in Tehran and ends in 2022 in NYC. My husband is originally from Tehran and the book was very interesting. It was sad to see how in that time period how the rights for women have been stripped away. The story is about 2 little girls and their friendship that sees them through the years. I hope you can find it at your libraries.
