Sonoma Rose by Jennifer Chiaverini


I have to tell you all, that this is a REALLY  GOOD book.  I was sucked in on the first pages.  If you've been reading the Elm Creek Quilts Novels, I think this is the best story yet. It's another trip back in time, to Prohibition & California. This time the main character is Rosa, who we met in an earlier novel, when Elizabeth & her husband moved to California. Rosa & her children are being abused by her husband John.  Some of the children are ill, & Rosa fears for all their lives. The story is gripping from the very beginning, & is a good story whether or not you've ever read any of the Elm Creek books. 

 It will be available for sale on the Feb. 21st, 2012. I was very lucky to have been given an advanced copy to read, & I'm telling you this is Jennifer's BEST BOOK YET!

I do like her books- I read the Wedding quilt just recently so I pleased to see that there is still more to read.
Have popped by to check out your projects now and then - you are always doing such beautiful pieces.
Regards,
Anna
