This wasn't exactly what I expected, not as humorous. It was alright though, and I learned a lot about Mennonites.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

To the used book store. I have way to many books sitting around my house and need to make some room. They are falling out of the closet and off my dresser.

If you are the finder of this book, welcome to the site. Please make a journal entry so that I know it has been picked up and found. To do so is free and you can do it anonymously. You can read the book or not, keep it, pass it on to someone else you think might enjoy it, or leave it in a public place like I did.

I can't believe it! I found another one of your books, guinaveve, at the AAUW Book Sale at Towne Mall in Middletown. I think I found another one a few years ago. Anyway, I love memoirs and this one sounds intriguing. I look forward to reading it.

Interestingly enough, I met a Mennonite woman at a recent writer's conference. We were talking about books and she mentioned this one --rather disparingly, I might add. She felt Rhoda was not completely honest about leaving the Mennonite faith and then returning. The woman I spoke to knows her and sees her at conventions every year.

I also agreed with this woman that Rhoda had some really meaningful things to say about her marriage and her feelings about her husband, but she buried that under somewhat insulting belittlements of Mennonite customs.

About two-thirds of the way through, I lost interest.
