Thank you for your suggestions. Just this morning I read the review of this book posted at the bookeywookey blog and the reviewer asked the same question of his readers -- what other Just books do you suggest? I didn't check out what they said, but I like the sound of the titles you list. Thanks again.
Have a great day.

Thanks so much for the message about Just's book. It will be awhile before I buy it (maybe I'll put it on my Christmas wish list) and then get around to reading it, but I am interested. Are there earlier books of his you would especially recommend?
I usually try to read a couple of books by a "new" (at least to me) author.
What are you reading now? I'm just finished with one book and about to start another -- I have too many in my TBR stack so choosing the next one is always interesting. So many books, so little time, as they say

Thanks for adding my library to your list. I see we have some favorite authors in common. I have been reading about Ward Just's new book -- I've never read anything by him before -- and I think I might like this one (Exiles in the Garden).
Good reading, June.

There is nothing tangible.
There is just a feeling that your life is
different and that your capacity to love and care has
miraculously been enlarged with out any effort on your part.
It's like having a tiny apartment and somebody moves in with you.
But instead of becoming cramped and crowded, the space expands,
and you discover rooms you never knew you had
until your friend moved in with you."
