I am a big fan of the author. I loved her in many of her acting roles and Northern Exposure was one of my favorite television shows. I also knew that Ms. Turner has spoken out about the importance of her faith. Knowing this I was very enthusiastic to read her book. I am sorry to say I cannot seem to finish reading it.
