Trish asked Martha Hall Kelly:

If I haven’t read any of the flower girl title books. Should I start with the second book 1st lost roses since it is a prequel to the lilac girls?

Martha Hall Kelly Good question, Patricia! They are all stand alone books, and you can read them in any order. Most people started with Lilac Girls and went back in time with the other two books (Lost Roses is WWI and Sunflower Sisters in Civil War) but now that the Civil War book is out some people have been reading that first and then working their way forward in time. Hope that helps!

Gaby asked Martha Hall Kelly:

Hi Martha! Are you planning on coming to Canada (Toronto) to talk bout the books? I absolutely adored Lilac Girls and can't wait to get my hands on Lost Roses.

Joanne

Joanne asked Martha Hall Kelly:

Having 'read' this book by bouncing between print and audio, I found that, once again, there was a narrator that didn't work for me - Caroline. This leads me to ask, 'Do authors select the narrators?" Since I loved this book and was further intrigued after reading the Author Notes, I decided it was time to ask about this issue. Too often female narrators are wispy and weak sounding when in fact a character is strong.
