Thanks for these reviews. My go-to pie crust for the last 35 years, courtesy of Jan’s aunt in New Orleans. Soften 1 stick butter and 8oz cream cheese. Cut in one cup whole wheat flour, until all is pea-sized lumps. Make a flattish ball. Refrigerate at least one hour. Roll out, fill and bake. You are welcome.

What a great set of recommendations! My copy of Jami's book should arrive any day now. I am looking forward to it. I will take a break from Dickens to read it!

Thanks for the recommendations, Jenny. I bought the Kindle version of Joel's book and am reading the chapters slowly one by one to appreciate his storytelling fully. Best regards.

Jennifer, that is one of the most generous and lovely reviews ever. Thank you so much! It is so rare for a reviewer to convey so eloquently and appreciatively their personal views on a book. Now, how in the world do I say this without sounding greedy? Will you be able to post this on Amazon? Please know that you made my day, my week, my month. What a great moment for me!

I am the same way. If it isn't Amdy Weir, I haven't read it in quite a few years. This is so good!
