This month for Book Club we read Alice's Tulips by Sandra Dallas.
I enjoyed it very much! It is historical fiction set in the Civil War from a young bride's view that she writes in letters to her sister. I give it a nine out of a ten. Parts of it I would have written differently...but that is just me being judgy.
All of the gals in the book club liked it...it was one of my suggestions. So far I have liked all the Sandra Dallas books I have read. Persian Pickle Club, Westering Women and true sisters all were excellent reads.

Thanks. I'm always looking for good books....but I need to make/take the time to read. My ADHD kicks in!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Adding them to my reading list now.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you found a good book to read. I’m reading “ From Camp Douglas to Camp Vicksburg.” These are letters written by a soldier in the 55th Infantry Division from Illinois during the Cicil War.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to keep that name in mind. I do enjoy historical fiction but I've not heard of this author. Always nice when one's pick is well received.
ReplyDeleteSounds like an author I will be looking for at our library. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI need to read more of her books. I loved the Persian Pickle Club.
ReplyDeleteThat definitely sounds interesting. I hope you and Far Guy have a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteMore people should stick out their neck and participate in a book club.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the book ideas!!!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate hearing about the books you read and knowing if you like them or not. I'm going to try one of these you mentioned pretty soon. Right now my group is reading The Christmas List~~I just started it today. It's a modern day Scrooge story. Written by Richard Paul Evans. Really good so far. Linda imagesisee.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteSounds like another author to add to my list.
ReplyDeleteI like her books too. Persian Pickle Club was awesome.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fine writer. I'll check it out. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good one. I like to sprinkle light Historical Fiction books into the mix of what I read. Currently turning pages on "The Memory Library" an enjoyable easy read.
ReplyDeleteI'd give it a 9 out of 10 too
