Cindy, Yes .... that is a wonderful book. I couldn't put it down until I was finished. Then I went on to read the 'follow-up' book, "Sarah's Quilt." That was good, but not as riveting the first book. PAT in Va.

I agree Pat. Sarah's Quilt was good, but These is My Words is a really tough act to follow.

It peaked my interest in reading more about that period in time & I have quite enjoyed it. I've just reserved Star Garden at the library. Thanks for the tip Pati.

I enjoyed all three in the series very much.

Just finished _The Wednesday Sisters_ by Meg Waite Clayton about a group of friends. A very good summer read.
