She's a talented author and I agree, she doesn't get the recognition she deserves. Hopefully the next one will do it. :)Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00832231139076878401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-820631294464587692008-07-25T08:48:00.000-05:002008-07-25T08:48:00.000-05:00You're welcome, Kay.

Her books are unusual, and so much better than some on the bestseller lists. And, they're not unreadable like some literary fiction!<BR/><BR/>Can't wait to see what your group thinks about Tallgrass.Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946133849271512083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-55123492218744463052008-07-25T08:46:00.000-05:002008-07-25T08:46:00.000-05:00I love Sandra Dallas and really, really hoped that...I love Sandra Dallas and really, really hoped that TALLGRASS would be the book that brought her recognition. It was so good. I also loved THE PERSIAN PICKLE CLUB. I read it years ago and have read all her books. I plan to have our book group read TALLGRASS this next year. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for bringing attention to some wonderful books and a very gifted writer, Lesa!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-89056896960971018062008-07-25T08:33:00.000-05:002008-07-25T08:33:00.000-05:00You're welcome, Randy!
