Summary: A sweet novel about a woman learning how to live...and love.
Review: Letts has written an unbelievable tale. She flourishes her words with quaint details and interesting dialogue. This captivating story about Novalee captures the readers heart. At the start of the story, Novalee is seventeen, pregnant, and unknowledgable, growing up in a strange world without ever really having anyone to care about her. When her boyfriend strands her at a Wal-Mart store in the middle of a tiny town, her new life begins. She meets people who are much different than those she is used to. They are friendly and sweet, and she learns to care for them and trust them like family...real family. Novalee finds undiscovered talents and feelings deep inside her that she never would have thought she had. In this tiny town, she changes from a confused child into a beautiful intelligent young woman. The types of things she experiences show her how perfect life can be.

Summary: Typical Oprah's book club
Review: This book is typical of Oprah's book club. Oprah picks books of people who have everything going wrong for them and then they somehow rise above it. This is another such story and I'm getting tired of them. Enough with the soul searching novels with happy endings.

Summary: Thankyou for a great time Ms. Letts!!
Review: This was a great book I couldn't put it down and I can't find another book to take it's place. I can't say enough about the town that she was fortunate / unfortunate (how ever you might look at it) enough to be left in. It makes you wonder if there is really such a place in our world today?? Everytime I go to Wal-Mart now I think of her and smile. Thank you Billie Letts !!!

Summary: What a FANTASTIC book!!!!!!
Review: Where The Heart Is is, by far, the best book I've ever read. It was touching, humorous, and sad, yet it maintained a sense of home. The characters were all true to life. I became friends with Novalee, fell in love with Americus, hated Willy Jack, and basically felt like I was one of the characters in the book. I laughed, cried, became angry, and was uplifted. Reading it was a wonderful experience, and I would like to read more from Billie Letts.

Summary: Beautifully written, such an easy read
Review: By far the best book I've read in a long time. What I loved was how I felt like I really knew the characters with out her having to go into a million little details. The story was unusual and yet so believable. So much happens in the book you cant help but want to finish it in one sitting, I did however need 4 sittings due to my kids. I've been bragging on this book all week and thought I'd share with you that it is so worth reading.
