I just received Half Broke Horses in the mail today, I will let you know how it is, and yes Joyce it is suppost to be a "real life novel".

Good Morning:)!
Half Broke Horses is called a 'real life novel' . . . I believe it's the story of the author's grandmother - I haven't heard from anyone who's read it so don't know whether it's good or not . . .

Thanks Joyce for the review of Gabaldon's new book. I have it reserved @ the library. I always feel with her books that I should reread the last book, because its hard to remember all the characters and time lines. So glad to hear that there will probably be an 8th book.

I finished "Echo in the Bone" - book 7 in Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series . . . Good - but a bit disjointed, as she follows several main characters activites concurrently - different continents, different times . . .
Warning . . . there will definitely be a book 8 as a few are left in 'precarious' situations . . .
Valerie - both of those are on my 'to read' list, glad to get another positive recommendation:)!
Hope everyone is doing well . . . GIANT HUGS:)!

I am into Patrick Conroy all of a sudden. I read Lords of Dicipline- about life at the Citadel in the 1960s. Then, Prince of Tides,about a disfunctional family , and now I am reading The Water is Wide. It's about his early teaching career. I got on the long list for his most recent book at the library. Forgot the name of it. Excellent writer.

I also read The Testamony by Anita Shreves. I thought it was very good. About a sexual episode in a private live-in high school dorm room that was caught on video tape and how it effected the entire town. A very good lesson for our young people.
