Plain & Simple A Womans Journey To The Amish
by

I love quilts. What's not to love about something so warm & cozy, and beautiful, too? Just looking at the cover & reading the title told me that here was a book by a kindred spirit. Sue Bender succeeds in writing simply about her longing for, and her journey toward community; that sense of belonging we all crave. What better metaphor for community than the quilt; an assembly of small individual pieces of fabric into one, large, utilitarian whole?

Sunshine Preferred: The Philosophy of an Ordinary Woman

, August 29, 2009
Fans of "The Life of an Ordinary Woman" will be disappointed. I was. Anne's first book was such a hit, that editors did not hold her subsequent efforts to the same literary standard. She rambles, expounding on the irrelevant, and glossing over areas that could have been of interest. There is still a gem or 2 to be found, if you don't mind digging for them.
