I think you could get quite a variety of wedding themed reading just from the VMCs. I still have A good husband on my TBR, plus if I ever get hold of it, Familiar Passions by Nina Bawden.<br /><br />LTTS - I read about the movie when I was writing about the book - I think that it sounds really interesting though not sure I can get hold of it. I do love how reading opens up new worlds, that is one of the best parts of it for me,verityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825551404394913715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942500966976732451.post-24861932251233124472009-10-26T18:40:32.560+00:002009-10-26T18:40:32.560+00:00I'm glad you enjoyed this one.

It was filmed in my home state of North Carolina. Although I have not read the book it seems to be true to the time and racial intricacies and prejudices of the South and of America as a whole both then and even now.<br /><br />I think it's wonderful when our reading can take us to new places. I have both The Wedding and The Living is Easy on my TBR shelf though they are not the VMC editions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942500966976732451.post-11327336201734346172009-10-26T18:32:58.250+00:002009-10-26T18:32:58.250+00:00It's great to read such a positive review of t...It's great to read such a positive review of this written by someone I trust. I had this VMC on my wishlist when I began to collect them because it definitely appealed and now I am looking forward to reading it during my wedding-themed weekend in a few weeks.Paperback Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579608422235511054noreply@blogger.com
