Sue, have you read her graphic novel, The Exile. It's Jamie & Clare's life in drawings. I was going to buy it, but it got very bad reviews.

Thank you for sharing this one, JudithAnn. I am hoping to learn more about this little known subject.

This has been a great topic, Central Ohio quilter. Happy to know there are so many quilters out there who love to read as much as I do.

Yes I have read Water For Elephants. It was one of the best books I have read in a long time. I'm going to look for more by Sara Gruen. Good author.

I loved Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, especially since I used to teach autistic kids. I'm currently reading Double Cross by Clare O'Donohue. It's the 3rd in the series of Someday Quilts Mystery books. The 1st is Lover's Knot and 2nd is Drunkard's Path. Easy reads.
