Friendship Cake
Paperback; Good

How many Southern women does it take to put together a cookbook? Five, in Hinton's sincere but frothy debut novel, in which several female congregants of the appropriately named Hope Springs Community Church in North Carolina decide to create a cookbook; each has her own special recipe to share and a story to tell. On the cookbook committee are pragmatic Margaret, whose down-home wisdom makes her the community confidant; 63-year-old Louise, nursing the unrequited love of her life, another woman, through Alzheimer's; Beatrice, with a finger in everyone else's pie; Jessie, the only black woman in the all-white congregation; and Reverend Charlotte Stewart, their first woman preacher. The project originates as a form of female bonding through food, but as the committee holds meetings to review their progress, a lot more is stirred up than soups and stews. Also on the table are death and sex, friendship and love. The characters introduce themselves in the opening chapters, and their voices are like a potluck dinner, unsophisticated and oddly comforting. Hinton, herself a North Carolina pastor, successfully endows Charlotte with all of the self-doubts that a cleric might feel facing her first congregation. There are 17 recipes included, banana pudding, relish, grits, etc.

The Things I Know Best
Paperback; Good

Generations of Pinot women have lived their small-town southern lives with each one of them possessing a special gift of knowing. What they know and how they know it are different for each. Liddy reads hands and knows if someone's love will last. Grandma Pinot reads the sky, and Mama Bertie knows in advance when someone is going to die. The gift is taken for granted and used as part of everyday life. Bertie gives her boss, the local funeral director, advance warning to help in scheduling. The gift doesn't bring with it a guarantee of wealth or happiness, or even family harmony. There is a secret that taints the town and Bertie's relationships. The arrival of an old black preacher and his son brings answers and redemption from the past.
