Even though, I have loved and read all of Ann's Shaker books, the thing I love about them as well, is that they can be read as stand alone novels. So you don't have to read the previous book to know what's going on, although I would strongly encourage everyone to do so...they're all great!Diana Flowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127629740742628849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-7870735504427693432011-08-20T10:05:11.548-04:002011-08-20T10:05:11.548-04:00Pamela, thanks so much.

I ran out of books as a young girl and went through my mom's, and found a fiction book of the Shakers. I was enthralled, as I had never heard of them either. So I was thrilled when Ann wrote her first Shaker novel!Diana Flowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127629740742628849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-80428100958316203252011-08-18T11:57:38.208-04:002011-08-18T11:57:38.208-04:00Great review!
