Author: Sharon Mondragon
Publisher: Kregel Publications
Release Date: February 11, 2025
Genre: Contemporary Fiction
Something is brewing in Raeburne's Ferry, Georgia--and it's not sweet tea.
In a small town where gossip flows, bedridden Mary Ruth McCready reigns supreme, doling out wisdom and meddling in everyone's business with a fervor that would make a matchmaker blush. When her best friend has her world rocked by a scandalous revelation from her dying husband, Mary Ruth kicks into high gear, commandeering the help of her favorite granddaughter, Sarah Elizabeth, in tracking down the truth. Finding clues in funeral condolence cards and decades-old gossip dredged up at the Blue Moon Beauty Emporium, the two stir up trouble faster than you can say "pecan pie."
But just when things are starting to look up, a blast from the past waltzes in with an outrageous claim. But as Grandma Ruth always says when things get tough, "God is too big." With him, nothing is impossible--even bringing long-held secrets to light. Grandma Ruth and Sarah just might have to ruffle a whole mess of feathers to do it.
I really LOVE Contempory Fiction books. I also enjoy books with unusual titles. Grandma Ruth Doesn't Go to Funerals by Sharon J. Mondragon was the most recent book in this genre that I have read.
WOW, this storyline is absolutely one of the best ever! I was reeled into the storyline from the very beginning. The main characters in this book are Grandma Ruth, Sarah Elizabeth and Charlotte Harrington. Sarah is Grandma Ruth's granddaughter and Grandma Ruth's "eyes and ears". They live in a small town in Georgia and Grandma Ruth is bedridden. Sarah keeps tabs on the small town happenings and reports back to Grandma Ruth. Charlotte Harrington is Grandma Ruth's best friend and when Charlotte's dying husband reveals something that no one can comprehend, Grandma Ruth and Sarah decide they will figure this out The story then becomes fun, humorous and heartbreaking all at once. I truly LOVE that Grandma Ruth seems to be in control of everything from the comfort of her bed, she doesn't let things "hold her back." Sarah and Grandma Ruth are determined to help their friend Charlotte solve the mystery that P.B. Harrington left behind. I also LOVE how Grandma Ruth knows that God is bigger then what is happening and he can help with this also. The book has FUN, Mystery, Humorous antics and Faith. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Fun loving books! WONDERFUL BOOK!
