Whoops, I forgot to record that I had received this book - sorry, busybooklover!

I just finished reading this book and have started on the second one (Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood). I'm hoping that "Divine Secrets" will tell more of a story that "Little Alters Everywhere" did. Each chapter was told from the point of view of a different character in the book, but I didn't think that they fit together very well. I felt as if I looking at this family through a fog - sometimes the fog would lift and I would see a little piece of what was going on, but then that story line would be interrupted and I would never find out what happened. I could tell that some of these chapters were originally short stories. Not a bad book, but I would have preferred more continuity.

This book is traveling on to Dani75 in Germany. Enjoy!

Received this in the mail today - thank you caretta! And I´m really looking forward to reading it since I´ve enjoyed "The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood" so much !

I really enjoyed reading this book and liked it as much as "Divine Secrets..". As each chapter is told by a different member of the Walker clan you´ve got the feeling that you get to know them quite well just by reading and sharing some of the stories from their youth and their adult life.

thank you so much dani75, i've been looking forward on reading this ever since i read the divine secrets last summer...

i'm still a little confused which one of the books is the first part and which one the second, because as a first part, little altars wouldn't be as good as as a second part... if you've already read the divine secrets you already know the walker family and familiar voices talk to you in little altars telling little stories from different point of views, which brings you closer to the family... so i just tak it as the second part of the divine secrets and said that i really enjoyed that book :)
