In reply to Francine Schwarz. Great book, Francine! Once I started it, I couldn't put it down. I read every chance I had, and I laughed, and I cried. Fascinating life she led in spite of all the roadblocks she faced.

In reply to Rosa E. Rosenberg. I loved The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store. For some reason it seemed so contemporary even though it is set in an earlier time. Important themes, exciting story, and a satisfying finale make it a great book.

like to suggest “The Women” by Kristen Hannah. She does extensive research for all her historical fiction books. This one is about the roll of female nurses during the Vietnam War

These were some very good selections which made it difficult to choose. I did make my choices, but I will be happy to read any of these books.
