"A heartwarming, delightful book that made me appreciate my friends even more than I usually do. A story of true friendship, with a little mystery thrown in for good measure. Even though I live in a different time and place, I truly felt I could relate to Queenie Bean and her wide variety of friends. I especially liked that she felt fierce loyalty to the women in her club, her fellow "Pickles", even the women she didn't really like. It made me stop and think about what kind of friend I am: would I be as loyal and true as Queenie? Queenie also tries really hard to make friends with someone who might not be a great fit as a friend, but eventually grows to a deeper appreciation of women she had previously dismissed.
A sweet book, a quick read, a book I didn't want to put down once I picked it up!"
"I just love a Sandra Dallas book. This is one of my favorites. There are many twists and turns, relationships revealed, a murder to solve and all sorts of confusions and mishaps. Many eccentric characters populted the story and a few will be found in other books by the author.
Queenie and Grover are a husband and wife who live and farm in Kansas. They take in a family, the Massies, Zepha and Blue and their 2 children, who break down and need to save money for the trip west. There's a dead body to be found, gossip to share, all kinds of things going on in this book. The quilting circle, which has appeared in all of the books I have read by the author, is present here. It is a refreshing look at the way things happened during the depression and how everyone helped each other out, no matter what tragedy occurs. A very good read."
"This was a quick read, a book about friendships in the 1930s Kansas during the depression. The ladies gathered once a week to quilt and called their quilting group "The Persian Pickle Club", named after paisley fabric for which the design reminded them of persian pickles. A young woman named Rita marries a young man who had grown up in the town, and they settle in. There is a "secret" among the townfolk and Rita is bound and determined to find out the truth and discover the secret. She's itching to get out of this small town and become a journalist. It's about friendships, supporting one another, and gives some insight into what life was like living on a farm during the depression, the closeness between them all, and how the townfolk really rallied around and looked out for one another during good times and bad."
"This book was set in the old southern area, which is where I'm from. It was nice to see a wide variety of women getting together and sharing something nice. They didn't have to struggle with life on their own--they had their friends to be there with them.
These women were as diverse as could be; however, their united sisterhood made them strong. I didn't like the secret that was being kept, but I did understand somewhat of the reasons behind it because of the time of history this fell within.
There were several great quotes that I loved in this book, but most of all I loved the way the women pulled together."
