Some good ole reading from the heart of Kentucky

I feel like our days in KY are dwindling slowly. I don't know why it took me so long to find a great author who lived just miles away from my house. I picked up one of her books "The believers" a couple of years ago and don't remember why I didn't finish it. It was really good, but last I remember reading it was on a long trip with 4 kids, the rest is history. So, since it was checked out for me to finish it off, I read another one of her classics 40 acres and no mule  40 Acres and No Mule.  Oh, my! I enjoyed it so much and wished that I'd read it years ago upon coming to a foreign land, not just USA, but the land of KY.  I think every newcomer needs to be required to read 40 acres before even attempting to understand the culture and the people around here.  I think I am finally adapting.  Now, I am reading Tara's healing and am having an extreme time putting the book down when the clock strikes midnite.  :(  A review follows. I can't wait to get back to reading. Please, forgive my formatting of the books; links. This is my first time  using my amazon associates' linking and I have no idea how the positioning works yet.  I wanted to move the believers up higher where it belongs, but have no idea how and why the way I think it should work doesn't. SO, please, be patient with me. I'll get it eventually. Back to my reading, oh, how I wish I could write like that!
