WATCH VIDEO TRAILER OF LOOKING FOR SALVATION AT THE DAIRY QUEEN
One reviewer said she read this book for hours while her two small children climbed on her all day. I was almost as bad, finishing it in one sitting. It's that kind of book.
From the beginning, you fall in love with Catherine Grace Cline, who is trying her best to get out of Ringgold Georgia, population 1,923, where she has spent her 18 years living with her third-generation Baptist preacher daddy and her sister, Martha Ann. The sisters go to the Dairy Queen every Saturday for a Dilly Bar, plotting how they are going to leave Ringgold someday.
Their mama died when they were young, but they have their neighbor Gloria Jean, who dresses fine, wears lots of make-up, and gives the girls the womanly touch they so desperately need. Every Sunday they have a sit-down dinner with their daddy.
When Catherine finally makes her get-away to Atlanta and lands a job in a department store, she is sitting pretty. Then tragedy strikes at home and she learns a secret that changes the very nature of things and helps her see that salvation is found in the strangest of places back home. Don't miss this grand debut from an author whose seamless prose is a gift that touches the heart and leaves one asking for more.
