I am following but choosing if I will read the book that month or not. I just moved from Arizona to Utah also. I like the book suggestions.
Glad to hear we still have active members! I'd love to know what everyone is reading these days!
If you haven't read any of Jennifer Peel's books, I am loving them!Very lovely books! Definitely very different from typical lds fiction. Much broader appeal. but very genuine and sweet. I think my favorites are "The Girl in Seat 24B", and her new one, "House Divided". The last one is a sweet southern read. All of her books have 'life', family complications that are so genuine, and don't seem artificial and contrived. I have also been reading the Timeless Romance Anthologies, partially because I can put the books down after reading one novella.... I am a compulsive reader and have difficulty putting a book down if the story is engaging!
Also just read Laura Johnstons' 'Rewind to You', kind of YA, but still a tender, sweet story.
I am currently reading the series HOUSE OF ISRAEL by Robert Marcum. I'm on the final book. They are so good!

I'm still reading Undaunted! I'm way beh..."I just finished "A Drowned Maiden's Hair" and wondered when the discussion would begin. I personally like to read books where lessons are learned and truth wins. I was so pleased with the eventual choice to tell the truth and the happy ending. As an adoptive parent, it is always fun for me to read stories about adoption and why people do it. I always hope that the true reason is for "love" and offering a child a better chance for life in mortality.

June, I can start a thread for this month's book. Hopefully some group members read the book this month! I unfortunately didn't get to!
