Enjoyable, funny, yet thought-provoking, "Divine Secrets..." was a welcome sequel to "Little Altars Everywhere". Everyone has known folks like these inhabitants of Garnet Parish, Louisiana -- the Ya-Ya's, their husbands, the Petites Ya-Ya's -- people with problems and frailities, but also with love, loyalty, and joie de vivre. Not only did I feel as if I knew them all intimately, I found myself wishing I had grown up in the South on a bayou! I was sorry to say good bye to Siddalee and the rest of them when the book was over, and I eagerly await future novels by Ms. Wells.
