Lindsey 0 #1 June 10, 2008 A few years ago I read Poisonwood Bible and Prodigal Summer. Both were excellent! I love her writing style. Almost want to go back and re-read those two books, but tonight I'm gonna start on The Bean Trees. Anybody else read her novels? I also have REALLY loved Tom Robbins, but I think I've read all of his...lol. They crack me up....Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas...HAHA!!! Anyway, I'm ready to start reading again for the fun of it. Anybody else??? linz-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged. A liberal is just a conservative who's been to jail Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #2 June 10, 2008 Nope, I've only ever read Animal, Vegetable, Miracle, which I did really enjoy. Maybe I should go back and read some of her novels."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Shepp 0 #3 June 11, 2008 I had to read The Bean Trees in high school, and I ended up liking it so much, I read everything she ever wrote. In my personal opinion, her fiction is better than non, but both have a quality to them that makes them a pleasure to read.Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward.

Lindsey 0 #4 June 12, 2008 When I read her other two novels a few years ago, I had just been on another Anne Rice kick--her witch books. I love her writing too. BK's is so light and just fun to read though. Even Poisonwood Bible. THAT is an awesome book, btw.-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.
