 This will always be one of my favorites. It is a story I shall never forget. This book has much to say about the human condition and how we interact with Fate.

 I can't remember many details of this book, but I remember really loving it at the time I read it. And the things I do remember remind me of why I thought it was beautifully written.

 This is one of my all-time favorites. The characters, the many faces of marriage, and the southern culture and dialect blend with the imagery to create an exquisite story.

 I first read this book when I was a teenager...loved it then, but didnt really appreciate it until I read it as an adult. Should be on everyone's reading list.

 AMAZING! It is so real and touching. Also read about the life of Zora Neal Hurston. I was introduced to this book in Women's lit in college and I have never forgotten it.
