Default Kristin Hannah

Okay, I just finished reading Firefly Lane. Seriously, one of the BEST books I have ever read, even though I was bawling by the end. Anyways, I'm wondering if anyone has read any of her other books and which ones you would recommend? TIA!!!

Winter Garden
Summer Island
I started this one but it didn't interest me much
If you Believe
and this one was different but was ok
Once In Every Life

I loved Firefly Lane, too!! The only other one of hers I've read is Angel Falls. I really enjoyed it, too. Can't wait to read more of hers when I get my Kindle!

I really enjoy her books, too. Though to be honest, I haven't enjoyed one yet as much as Firefly Lane.

Default She's really nice

Hi Guys,
This is my first post on this site. I buy lots of kits, but mostly I lurk and scraplift layouts. Of course, seeing Kristin Hannah's name mentioned caught my attention. I love her! It's nice to see that so many people have the same taste as me. Anyway, if you haven't already done this, Kristin is on FaceBook. I "LIKE" her page, and I get updates about her new books and when she'll be on tour. She announced her new book is called "Homefront" and I can't wait to read it.

Here is her FB page:
https://www.facebook.com/AuthorKristinHannah?sk=info

Here is her website:
http://www.kristinhannah.com/content/index.php

she posts quite often on her FB page (not sure about twitter)

I have read almost all of them and loved them all!
Being an adoptive mom "the things we do for love" had me bawling!

and firefly lane was amazing (again cried) but I love getting that involved in a book that it makes me emotional =)

I loved Firefly Lane. A friend bought it for me to read and gave it to me along with a bookmark that she had made for me. Seriously one of the sweetest gifts I'd ever received. That feeling that someone "gets you." It was perfect & such a great read

I will likely join you gals for Kristin Hannah's book this month. I haven't read that one yet.

I'm listening to her newest one (Home Front) on audio book right now! It's good so far! I got it free when audible.com had a promotion on the Kindles special offers thing.

I bought the book last year but haven't read it yet. I usually read in the summer months more, haven't read a book all winter this year. I hear her books are very good.
