I learned about the Lutheran Ladies Circle series from BookBub and was intrigued by the description: "If you're looking for a sweet book about dealing with change-this isn't it. The Lutheran Ladies are sassy, have strong-spined opinions, and have stepped out of your office, your kid's soccer club, or your church to live on these pages. They deal with change-sometimes poorly-but with humor and heartache, they're knocking the rough edges from the journey." While many of the characters are caricatures, there is enough truth in them to ring true. I found myself laughing at their antics, and heartened by their friendships while learning some Biblical and spiritual truths.
In Book One, Plucking One String, Vera Henley is the pastor's wife who is used to keeping the ladies of the church organized. Then her husband dies, and suddenly she is not sure who she is anymore. 222 pages.
In Book Two, Through the Knothole, we learn more about Kay McCabe who is struggling with a divorce, children leaving home, losing a job, and taking in boarders. 228 pages.
In Book Three, Thanks for Leaving, we learn the story of Aunt Ula who takes us back to World War 2 as we learn why and how she developed her feisty nature. 220 pages.
