I just read "TWELVE STONES: Notes on a Miraculous Journey by BARBARA CAROLE." Newly published, this is a jewel of a book with a great story. A beautiful and earthy writer, Carole pursues an intellectual quest for truth, only to discover a world that needs love even more than truth.
I found the multicultural settings just fascinating and the story riveting. It was beautifully constructed and surprisingly poignant - a book I can't forget. I laughed, I cried, I couldn't stop turning the pages. "Twelve Stones" carried me to a spiritual realm I dared to visit for the first time. It was an exciting journey from cover to cover.

I wonder if it would help to add a representative book or two next to each author's name. Some of us may not know everyone on the list, especially if they're knew and/or write in a genre we're not familiar with.

I would love to have this master list printed in a "printer friendly" format...what a neat way to stash it in my car for the impromtu moments of discovery at store or library..
