I've been completely out of the loop lately. I had a baby last July and have been very busy with her. I also moved to Utah from Idaho. So lots has happened. I'm still reading Undaunted! I'm way behind! Is anyone following the monthly reads? Is anyone still with me, or is this group fading away?

Julie (juliecs351gmailcom) | 17 comments 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.

 The Flipped Page (Susan K) (theflippedpage) | 12 comments 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 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.

I'm beginning "A Thousand Splendid Suns." I just finished "The Day the Crayons Quit" as a preview for children and I really liked that book as well.

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!

That would be great if anyone else is interested.
