Turn Here Sweet Corn

I like this cover better than
newer cover.

Turn Here Sweet Corn is a book I downloaded in 2012.  Recently an afternoon news show talked about the book.  As I watched, I thought maybe it wasn't the book I had thought.  The anchor talked about it as a romance; I thought it was about organic farming.  Today I sat down and read it.  It's a book about organic farming, family, advocacy, local co-ops... EVERYTHING.  I rarely give a book a five out of five (and maybe I was a bit generous), but I gave this book a five out of five.  It certainly was a page turner.  Once I started reading the book, I didn't stop until I finished.

I am saddened that I didn't read it before today.  Our church is having a local author series.  {Tomorrow the author of Hannah Delivered is speaking.  Belly dancers and local musicians will also be present.}   I'm certain to quite certain that Atina Diffley is a local author.  As our church focuses on The Earth Delights this summer, we should have invited Diffley to speak as people started planting their gardens and visiting farmers' markets.  Although I have some questions after reading this book, I realize I should have read this book two years ago!
