It’s a very American book. Uber American lol. The group of women are obviously diverse in order to provide a variety of stories. I’m not sure what the prevalent theme is; the quilts, the Bunco, the food, the stories, they all seem to get equal time. Bunco seems to be something like Yahtzee and they seem to be making mostly traditional quilts.
There were no murders or zombies, which was a shame.-
There’s a murder in the February book!!! If you can find any book with quilting AND zombies, please let me know and I’ll pick it!!!
