    I read it once then passed it on. I guess I hit my southern gothic freak overload.

    I know, Oprah's "list seems so hollywood and glitzy to me...BUT, I put that notion aside and ended up reading one of the best books I've ever read :"The Seat of the Soul" by Gary Zucav....its about being a "multi sensory person instead of just a 5 senses person.
    But you kinda have to be into that stuff to enjoy it.

    I also read a book by Sherri Reynolds...The Rapture of Canaan...I think was the title and it was good. About some weird clan of backwoods religious people who think a baby is the second coming of Christ because its born with a slight birth defect.

    Also by the same author...Bitterrot Landing is really good.About a rape and abuse survivor who struggles to find a way to deal with what has happened to her after she has killed an abuser.
