Thank you! After reading, All the Days Past, All the Days to Come I went and put all her previous books in the series in a "to read" list. I think reading it with a group will be great.

I have been meaning to read this series forever! Now I have more motivation to start. Thank you.

Were we reading Roll of Thunder... in May?
