Shirley J. Adult Fiction Folks growing up together in families & foster homes
The Supremes Sing the Happy Heartache Blues by Ward Kelsey Moore 320 pages
Great book. So funny and so real! The Supremes in this story are 3 friends who grew up in the same neighborhood and church singing together and nicknamed "the Supremes." There is so much going on in the story and so many characters introduced but each one brings an intriguing aspect like rolling out the dough and adding ingredients to a pie. Everyone has something delicious to bring to the story. Unlikely pairs hookup (a sanctified staunch elderly church lady and the elderly owner of a "gentlemen's club"), a woman and her daughter who are psychic and speak to the dead, a Blues Man who left his wife and son disappearing for years then turning up one day to try to reconcile, folks that run the diner, a woman with ambitions to become the new pastor and so many more. Great stories behind everyone. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and just found out there is another one with these characters. I can't wait to read that one. I recommend this book to middle schoolers on up to seniors. All ages will enjoy this story.
