It's a sad story, but it's beautifully written.             Seductive Poison: A Jonestown Survivor's Story of Life and Death in the People's Temple254 reviews Deborah Layton Anchor, 1999 MADNESS IN THE JUNGLE I have been fascinated with the Jonestown story ever since the first reports of the massacre emerged in '78. The combination of elements; the jungle, a charismatic leader, poisoned flavor aid and an assasinated congressman all made for an irresistable tale. The action plays out more like a novel than a real life event. The cult story has been told several times, but always by outsiders. Now ...             A Ring of Endless Light204 reviews Madeleine L'Engle Peter Smith Pub Inc, 2006 Loved It!! I loved this book and I would recommend it to girls from the ages 10 and up. This was a good story to connect to your life or the lives of the people around you. The things that happen to Vicky in A Ring of Endless Light might happen or may have happened to the reader. Therefore the plot of the story is believable. I would like to read another story by this author because I loved how thorough ...             Don't Die, My Love261 reviews Lurlene McDaniel Bantam Doubleday Dell Publishing Group, 1995 Can't Put It Down This was the very first Lurlene McDaniel book that I read.

Grief Watch, 2005 For Adults - wonderful Our seven year old son just lost a four year battle against cancer. A friend gave me this book and it was a perfect recipe for grieving. I can't say enough good about it and its effect on me. I'm not convinced that this is a book for children. The concepts and illustrations are too strong perhaps. (My 9yr old daughter is emotionally mature - but I'm not sure if I'll share this with her until ...             Final Gifts162 reviews Patricia Kelley, Maggie Callaghan Hodder & Stoughton Religious, 1994 Comfort and Reassurance for the Caretaker This book was informative and comforting to me after I lost my mother to cancer. I wished I'd had this information while I was caring for her during her final months of life. However, it helped me to understand her needs and desires as I reflected on her health and needs during my grieving the first month following her passing. I strongly recommend it as an accompaniment to the services of ...             For Laci: A Mother's Story of Love, Loss, and Justice (Unabridged)269 reviews Sharon Rocha audible.com Behind Closed Doors...

Lewis HarperOne, 1989 Raw and true CS Lewis looks death into the face; he does not flinch and does not console himself with platitudes. He had lost the love of his life and his pain is palpable to the reader. This is a raw and honest book but it is not at all depressing: At the end of the book, Lewis begins to recover: his wish is simply that, on his own death bed, his lover will come back to him and give him the consolation of ...             Till Death Do Us Part75 reviews Lurlene MCDANIEL Bantam Books, 1997 This was an amazing book It was so sad that in the end i cried. I know what its like to loose someone close to my heart and it made i easier to relate to this book. The book kept me wanting to know what would happen to April and Mark.

Rarely do I cry while reading books, but during this book, or books, I cried my heart out. Once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. There was drama, some comedy, and the best of all Romance. It also had myster and such, it was like all my favortie genre's in one. If you are thinking of buying it, do so. I recomend this book if you enjoy sad romance.

In my work as a hospital chaplain I have given copies to several people who have experienced the death of a family member, and many have found it to be a great blessing.             Six Months to Live88 reviews Lurlene McDaniel, Bichsel Morris Pages Publishing Group, 1985 Just read it This is a wonderful book, the whole series is wonderful. If you don't like tear-jerkers then don't read it, or any of them. Together, all of the books work to show an image that many books of this kind leave out. They tell a story.             Death in the Long Grass86 reviews Peter H. Capstick St. Martin's Press, 1978 Death in the Long Grass A terrific book, especially for those going to Africa. A must for hunters especially those who will hunt in Africa. It was the book my Professional Hunter had me read the first time I visited southern africa.

Also a great book for those who may not go to africa but ...             Say Goodnight, Gracie101 reviews Julie Reece Deaver Demco Media, 1989 best book I would give this book five stars. It is one of the best books I've ever read and I could not put it down. The story was captivating and it made you feel like you were another character watching this story unfold.
