It’s so funny to me that you feel that way about Elizabeth Goudge, because that’s exactly how I feel about Steinbeck! I’ve read three of his books and not liked any…I’m def thinking about skipping the Pearl. Merry Christmas!

Haha that is funny! If you don't like the author, skip it, friend! No shame.

I, too, could not get past the first couple of pages. I believe a audible “nope” was uttered as I (gently) tossed it on a shelf. As always, I’m nodding along and taking away so many great books recommendations! Merry Christmas to you and the rest of the Langr Family!

Haha a very similar experience. When the author started talking about which parent St. Francis got his personality from, I tapped out. Merry Christmas to you and yours, Krista!!
