Millie’s Treasure Book Review
I hardly know where to begin in describing how much I LOVED this book! I’ve read a lot of books by Kathleen over the years, and by far, this has been my favorite one.

A Note Yet Unsung Book Review
What a satisfying conclusion to this series! I love how there were three distinct themes present in each book – art, nature, and music – and having long been interested in music (even some classical scores), I soaked in every moment of this last story. I want to share so much about it in a review, yet don’t want to share anything at all except to say – it is a MUST READ! Even though I don’t want to share too much, I will share just a few things… If you are a fan of Southern history, you’ll love the fact that the Belmont mansion in Nashville and its owner…
