I absolutely love her books! Most of them are about women you can really relate to. They're really good stories! I have just finished book #5 in her Cedar Cove series and am anxiously waiting for #6 to come out in Sept. I guess I can relate to these books because they're based on her home town of Port Orchard, WA. My niece used to live there so I can actually see some of the places she's talking about.

That's really cool! I know on occasion I have read a book set in a place I have been and I know for me it adds to the enjoyment as well! [img]images/smiley_icons/oh yes.gif[/img]

Debbie Macomber is going to be in Union Gap, WA (Yakima) on July 28th. She's gonna be at Borders for a book signing! I am DEFINITELY going to do my best to be there too! I'm so excited and can't wait. I'm gonna try and have her sign both my &quot;Susannah's Garden&quot; book and &quot;A Good Yarn&quot; book. </font>

<font color="purple">Yes, MGF, she writes a lot about crocheting and knitting. Mostly knitting I think. I haven't read one of her books yet that HASN'T at least mentioned knitting.



Ok Cupcake. I'm looking for that PM. [img]images/smiley_icons/oh yes.gif[/img] I'll have to check out the B&amp;N discussion group. I looked at it earlier, but I've been so busy at work, I haven't had time to play on the 'puter much. Do you have to have the book with you while you're in there?? It may look a bit funny if I have an open book in my lap at work. [img]images/smiley_icons/roflmbo.gif[/img] I'll go check it out. I do remember getting an e-mail about the book discussions from B&amp;N. </font>

<font color="purple">Yes and Yes. [img]images/smiley_icons/oh yes.gif[/img] [img]images/smiley_icons/oh yes.gif[/img]



I love the Cedar Cove Series! Now that I'm caught up with them, I can hardly wait for the next one! [img]images/smiley_icons/roflmbo.gif[/img]



You go by the addresses. 16 is the first book. 204 (I think) is the second book. The address with the 3 in it is the 3rd book, address with the 4 in it is the 4th book, and so on..............</font>
