Check out what APOOO BookClub member Dera Williams has to say about The Someday List by Stacy Adams Hawkins. 

I finished The Someday List today and it was very good. A multi-layered story, I felt it was realistic and not preachy, but gave sound, intelligent reason for walking with God and how to it. I like how the characters were humanized and grew into their own and how the author peeled layers to reveal key elements. I felt the pain of Rachelle and Troy and Gabe; I was surprised I felt for him. Highly recommend to all.

    I just finished the Someday list today. It was very good. I liked it for the same reasons Dera mentioned. I was just thinking. Could I really list 10 things I want to do before I turn 50. (2 years from now). I need to think on this.

    I’m looking forward to this one! Yas, as always, you wrote an excellent review, and I already have it down for my Second Quarter Challenge reading! My plate and my TBR stack are already filled with your other recommendations, but I will get to it! LOL!

    I absolutely loved The Someday List. Ms. Adams’ characters are thorough and multi-dimensional. The plot was thickly didactic, but not so heavy that it turned me off. I read Watercolored Pearls first and was enthralled with that one. I need to find some more of her books. I really enjoyed this one.
