Elephants
Glad to see even a short message, Jacky, one-handed typing is HARD. Hang in there.
Water for Elephants was indeed a strange book, as bookworm (who forgot to sign her real life name) mentioned. I read it and even though it is far from the kinds of books I usually read, I did like it.
I’ve read a couple of Fern Michaels’ books, Annie’s Rainbow and Seasons of Her Life. SEASONS takes us through the years of a young woman’s life as she finds a job in WW II Washington DC after leaving home and her abusive father. Her grandmother does help her maintain her sanity however. She falls in love, of course, but true love never runs smoothly and it’s proven here. This is a romance but only in snatches. I can recommend this one.
RAINBOW is a good story, too. Anna Daisy finds a bagful of money which she knows is part of the loot from a bank robbery. She keeps it and uses it to launch herself on a career. What happens after that is page-turning. I can recommend this one also.
