by Anita Shreve This week I am most excited about Briar Rose. This YA book is the retelling of the Sleeping Beauty story, but it's set during the Holocaust. I have heard great things about it and The True Story of Hansel and Gretel
, but I don't have a copy of that one yet.

I just added Briar Rose to my wish list. Thanks for the great tip!
Well, you know how I feel about The School of Essential Ingredients! Read it next!!! I also loved Testimony, although it was pretty intense, but that is what we love Shreve for, right? Hansel and Gretel is another one I finished recently and liked.
great week! School of Essential Ingredients looks really good
Lenore: Glad to help!
Sandy: I know! I have so many books I want to read next. If only I didn't have to work...
Erika: It was another great week, but I am running out of shelf room!
