 I found this story in the middle of a compilation book, so didnt know what to expect. I loved it and then recommended it to a friend who went out and bought the DVD which has an amazing cast. This book just brought alive the feeling of prejudice in America at the time - i would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone.

 I wasn't sure what to expect from this one...I went into it with the expectation of it being a girly novel, but then became so engrossed in its main character, Lily Owens. I've never read anything by Sue Monk Kidd before and I think she has an absolutely beautiful writing style. Her attention to small details makes it special and her words fill you up with a cozy feeling inside. This book is also great commentary on racial struggles during the Civil Rights movement.

 I loved this book. It was so true to the time period and yet the characters rose above the time, place and attitudes to create a sisterhood of friends. The characters redefine what is family and who you can and can't love.

 Warm book which deals with issues such as motherhood and family. Richly infused with the taste of honey - loved the characters in this book and would highly recommend it.

 I'd wanted to read this for a while. I read a review and it sounded good. Yep, I liked it. Its a woman's book, but not mushy.
