The Ladies of Garrison Garden

This is one of those books you are so thankful you followed your heart and not logic. I started this book and was not thrilled by it. But as it went on I was drawn to the colorful characters and the quirkiness of the story. Not the most believable of all books, but an enjoyable, page-turner of a read. By the way, it was the second in a series of 2. Maybe if I had read #1 I would have been hooked sooner.

Some of My Favorite Recently read books

  • The Cedar Cove series by Debbie Macomber. This series has 6 books in it currently. They explore the lives and times of the residents of Cedar Cove, Washington. The characters in this series are fun because they are so varied. I will admit, I would like to know about some of them. They are old and young, rich and poor, happy and struggling. They do all connect together and they all appear in each book, along with new characters all the time. The books are quick reads. I was very sad when they were done. I cant wait for the next installment of this series to come out in Sept. 2007. Visit Debbies Cedar Cove website for more and pic :http://www.debbiemacomber.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=page&pageID=6
