    Thumbs up OMG - a RAOK I least expected

    A few days back when I started a thread on Beverly Lewis's new book titled The Preacher's Daughter, I received a pm from a member telling me she had read the book and would like to send it to me. I was so excited because I love Lewis's books.

    Today I received a large box in the mail from this member and inside was:

    ~The Preacher's Daughter by Beverly Lewis
    ~Sampler Quilts magazine
    ~Letters of a Woman Homesteader by Elinore Pruitt Stewart
    ~Sarah's Seasons by Martha Moore Davis
    ~An Elm Creek Quilts Sampler (The first 3 novles) by Jennifer Chiaverini
    ~Fifty Acres and a Poodle by Jeanne Marie Laskas

    I'm a reader and I can't wait to get started reading these books. The first one I'm going to be reading is The Preacher's Daugther.

    I just want to publicly thank this wonderful member who has been so kind to send all these books.
