This is a different approach for Martha Grimes. It’s enjoyable to hear a story from the perspective of a 12 year old girl. Emma Graham is a curious straight talking adolescent girl. I’m looking forward to book 2.

Laurie King reveals the importance of women in the early days of faith group formations. She exposes the deliberate oppression and disregard of women in ancient days who clearly placed an extraordinary and pivotal part in the formation and spreading of numerous religious we claim as our choice of worship today. Bravo!

I found this book to be surprisingly progress! King recognizes the value and great contribution women have made sense to beginning of time. From both Jewish and Christian, and other faith traditions, she portrays the woman as strong, capable, and valuable to the progression of society and the quality of life.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It doesn't take long to be completely invested in the lives of the characters. It is a story of consequences. I was left questioning who was really the victim.

NOLA... Anything but "Easy"

I read Out of the Easy in anticipation that my granddaughter might read it in the very near future. I found myself captivated by the story. I was born in the early 50s and grew up in Louisiana. I attended LSU in Baton Rouge. Visiting New Orleans as a child seemed like fun. There was lways a carnival! But as a young adult, attending college, visiting New Orleans exposed the reality of my sheltered childhood. At midnight, children danced in the streets with bottle caps stuck to the bottom of their shoes . Small children, not even tall enough to see over the counter, were being given daiquiris. I was pleased the author did not go into too much detail, too much description , of the potential horroos that face a young girl living in the French quarter. Being too descriptive of the violets would've taken away from the heart of the story. Reading Out of the Easy reminded me that even in the most difficult situations, the darkness of one's childhood, there is always hope, always the opportunity to become more than what one's life might present at a given moment.
