    I've read other books by this author and adored them, so I'm sure I'd enjoy this one too. Bette Lee Crosby writes in a down-to-earth style, and her characters are believable -- like someone you might know.

    This one sounds interesting and it's a new to me author. I like the excerpt. I wonder why it's been so long and what has happened to her in the meantime?

    That bit made me think of my own life. After my Mom was gone, when I go to places we had gone together, I'll always noticed what has changed since she was alive.
