This book is about Jodi and the various relationships with the women in her prayer group. The theme of this book is aboutforgiveness. We see many examples of this through: forgiving the woman who robbed the prayer group, the mother of the boythat Jodi accidently killed, and MaDear and what she went through when her brother was murdered.I really enjoyed the book. It was very uplifting. I loved the humor in the book. And I loved the forgiveness theme.MaDear thought that Denny was the man who lynched her brother. At the end of the book, that situation was resolvedbeautifully.This author describes very well the relationships today between the various races. Jackson lives in the inner cities amongvarious races, so she brings her experiences into this book to describe how the various races fit in with each other.I look forward to reading more books from this author.
