Thank Goodness!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Seth's Pasture (Paperback)
Thank goodness for a novel about the south, that doesn't cast us all as complete imbeciles and idiots! The story is enthralling. I couldn't put it down. When you think you've figured it out, you're suddenly at another crossroad. A central plot with so many wonderful turns and bends that never misses a beat with the intent and heart of the storyline. For a new writer,S.Alexander has done a great job. Her storytelling abilities are masterful. I look forward to more books from her in the near future, hopefully a sequel to Seth's Pasture.

Outstanding,
By ALK (Saltillo, MS United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Seth's Pasture (Paperback)
From the beginning to the end and back to the beginning again, this is a great book. You are propelled into a world where all that matters are friends and family. Friends are not choosen for their social status or for what race they belong. You are whisked into the lives of the 6 children and their families. I had a difficult time putting this book down. You go with them on their adventures and laugh at their follies. You become engrossed in each family and their lifesyles. You cry when one family member dies and cheer when another down-on-their-luck family seems to find the gold at the end of the rainbow and are able to better themselves. You see how a friends encouragement can improve the self-esteem of another. You are lead on a search for Callie a mysterious woman who lives alone in the woods at the edge of Seth's pasture. When the children fist meet her they are terrified, for their heads have been filled with scary stories of a woman who kills dogs and cats and drinks their blood. Once they find her she disappears again and it is up to them to see what has happened to her. This book continues to leave you guessing right up until the end. Just when you think you have it all figured out you learn something new. ( alot like life :-} )
