Get reacquainted with old friends
3 Jun 2002
By Mary G. Longorio
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
It is time to return to Hope Springs. The Cookbook Committee continues to meet, even after the cookbook has been finished, but the group keeps meeting, and each woman keeps an eye and her heart out on the others. The pastor, Charlotte Stewart is troubled by the undercurrents she senses, and the questions she struggles with. Nadine struggles with her daughter's death by trying to follow her, as the other women try to tempt her to stay. Margaret faces a health crisis as Jessie renews the marriage long given up as dead, and looks to new horizions . Framed by the Hope Springs Community Garden Club Newsletter the book unfolds as each of these women try to meet her challanges. It is the friendships that these women have forged that enable each to rise to her individual challange, but realize that the friendships that bind them are irreplaceable. Lynne Hinton has been able to continue the story that began in Friendship Cake and has continued to develop the characters that have grown so dear to our hearts. A wonderful book that does not disappoint, and leaves me wishing the next would be out sooner.

Steel Magnolias
1 May 2002
By Readers Paradise
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Lynne Hinton's Friendship Cake used recipes to metaphorically show true friendship amongst 6 delightful and charming women. In the sequel, Garden of Faith the metaphors are beautifully placed in "Bea's Botanical Bits, Hope Springs Community Garden Club Newsletter."
The women of the Garden Club grew to understand her own faith. Young Pastor Charlotte is questioning her understanding of faith, while Margaret undergoes the first steps of dealing with a serious illness that could change the way she feels about what makes her a woman. Jesse is having a mini battle with her devotion of Hope Springs and what adventures lie beyond her small town and lastly Nadine whom we all remember from Friendship Cake lost her daughter in a car accident. She struggles with feelings of guilt about the death.
With all these weeds sprouting throughout the lives of the women from the Garden Club, Lynne Hinton shows us how God gives us all what we need when we need it. I truly enjoyed this book it was a fast read, and a page-turner. If I had to sum up my emotions, I would say Garden of Faith is a "feel good read." It's a book for everyone and a must read.
