With a startling sensitivity for human tragedy and the ability of the heart to heal, Luanne Rice has written a moving account of one woman's internal journey in Follow the Stars Home. Married young to Tim McIntosh, a passionate and charismatic fisherman with a troubled heart, Dianne Robbins expects a future full of happiness, security, and love. But when tests reveal that their unborn baby is severely disabled, Tim sails off for calmer waters. Faced with the responsibilities of raising her daughter Julia, Dianne finds support in Tim's brother Alan and her own mother Lucinda.
A decade later, Dianne has mastered the demands of nursing Julia and swears her life is completely fulfilled by these tasks. When Alan introduces Amy Brooks, a young and troubled girl, into Dianne's life, Dianne finds her heart opening and stretching in new and positive ways. As her mother Lucinda explains, "The biggest mistake any of us can make is thinking that love is a feeling, an emotion. It's not that at all. It's an action." And Dianne struggles over the choice to love again.
Beautifully written with exquisite moments of tranquility, Follow the Stars Home describes the multiple ways that love can be acted. With a dash of suspense included, this novel will keep readers' fingers flipping through the pages as fast as they can. --Nancy R.E. O'Brien
Book Description
Acclaimed novelist Luanne Rice "touches the deepest, most tender corners of the heart" (Tami Hoag, author of
A Thin Dark Line). Her stories remind us how precious and fragile life can be—and that we must risk our hearts every day to know happiness.
Follow the Stars Home is just such a novel: a story of poignancy and heartbreak, grace and courage.
Being a good mother is never simple: each day brings new choices and challenges. For Dianne Robbins, being a devoted single mother has resulted in her greatest joy and her darkest hours. Weeks before her daughter was born, she and her husband, Tim McIntosh, received the news every parent fears. Tim had not reckoned on their child being anything less than perfect, and abruptly fled to a solitary existence on the sea, leaving Dianne with a newborn—almost alone.
It was Tim's brother, Alan, the town pediatrician, who stood by Dianne and her exceptional daughter. Throughout years of waiting, watching, and caring, Alan hid his love for his brother's wife. But one of the many hard choices Dianne has made is to close her heart toward any man—especially one named McIntosh. It will take a very special twelve-year-old to remind them all that love comes in many forms and can be received with as much grace as it is given.
As lyrical and moving as the poetry of nature,
Follow the Stars Home is a miracle of storytelling that will take your breath away. If words alone can dare us to confront our fears and to choose joy over sorrow, then Luanne Rice's magnificent novel is a benediction and a call to celebrate our lives.

Sweet & Lovely Story ..........2007-01-15
On the front cover of my copy, it has a little blurb about what this book is about: "A novel of mothers, daughters and the courage to love again from one of today's most cherished authors." I don't think I have read many of Luanne Rice's books, though I do know of a few people who really adore her books. Because of their recommendations, I picked this one up at a garage sale over the summer and finally got around to reading this past week.
It is a novel of mothers and daughters and the courage to love again. It is beautifully written and very sentimental. It is about a woman, Dianne, who was abandoned by her husband before her daughter was born. Her daughter, Julia, was born with a lot of birth defects and was a life-time job of care-taking. It is beautifully written about her love for her daughter. It is also about Dianne's mother, Lucinda, who is always there for Dianne. It is also about a young girl who came into all their lives because she lives in a bad home. It is about all of them. It is also a romance between Dianne and her brother-in-law, Alan, who really inspired the definition of sticking through thick and thin for the last eleven years.
It is a beautiful story ~~ almost too sweet in some spots. It is compelling though since I couldn't stop reading it. It's perfect reading for those dreary winter days when it's too yucky to go outside to do anything. So curl up with this book and enjoy a lazy Sunday afternoon escaping into the world of Dianne and her family.

We all need someone to rely upon..........2006-12-16
Dianne Robbins has been a single mom ever since the day she learned the child she was carrying would be born with serious defects. Still, she's made the best of things, and created a loving home with her mother for 11-year-old Julia. Her ex-husband's brother Alan -- Julia's physician -- has always been there for them as well.
Meanwhile, local 12-year-old Amy Brooks is also feeling alone. Her mother Tess, depressed since the death of Amy's father, allows an abusive boyfriend to live in the family's home, neglecting and mistreating her young daughter. Amy flees to her longtime doctor...who in turn connects her with his sister-in-law and niece.
Upon first meeting, Amy is instantly bonded with Julia and Dianne. Unlike many others, she isn't the least bit put off by Julia's defects. Amy quickly falls into a routine, visiting the two after school and on weekends. Not only does she help Dianne take care of her daughter, but Amy also finds family and friendship for the first time.
Others, however, are not so content to let her do that. The anger of Amy's mother's boyfriend continues to grow, and if it's unleased upon the girl, it could prove fatal. In addition, Julia's health continues to prove problematic; and even though Dianne has been expecting precisely that for the past eleven years, the possibility of losing the one person she has truly loved is devastating.
Great Story, but..........2006-08-07
The most impressive thing about Luanne Rice's writing lies in her ability to tell a lovely, poignant story using characters you feel you have met somewhere before. In "Follow the Stars Home," a realistic human situation provides the opportunity for the author to take a look at love from several perspectives.
Dianne Robbins, initially attracted to Alan, a charming and upstanding young doctor, is wooed away by his brother, Tim, who is battling his own personal demons. Dianne falls into the common trap of thinking she can save a man by marrying and loving him and chooses Tim over Alan. Tim ends up breaking her heart by leaving her pregnant with their severely handicapped child. Wary of men, she spends the next eleven years lavishing her tremendous capacity to love on her handicapped daughter, Julia. All this time, Alan, who has secretly loved her, has maintained a steadfast devotion to Dianne and Julia and has become their guardian angel.
In an effort to help both Diane and Amy, a troubled young girl, Alan brings Amy into Diane's life to assist with Julia. This placement ends up being positive for everyone involved and allows the author to explore another facet of the healing power of love. I found this story beautiful and honest and not sappy at all until the author decided to write that atrocious ending.
This brings me to my criticisms of this book, mostly in the area of mechanics:
Luanne Rice doesn't appear to trust her readers' intelligence. This is the only reason I can think of that she would repeat descriptions almost verbatim throughout her book. This is terribly annoying and distracts from the story. How much more satisfying to read a description ONCE then be shown in the remainder of the book how these initial descriptions affect the behavior and/or perceptions of this character by others.
I have seen this next problem in other well-known authors--Research. What is wrong with basic research? The constellation Orion figures heavily in this book. It would seem to me that with a couple of clicks of the mouse on the Internet, she could manage to find out that Stella the cat could not be sitting at a window looking up at Orion in the summer as Orion is visible at night in North America only between December and March.
My biggest problem, however, is with the ending. It was designed to preach at us--making certain we understand once and for all that Julia is a fully sentient human being. Rice did a far, far better job with this objective by developing it slowly over the course of the book. We see Julia through Amy's eyes. Despite her rough edges, Amy is kind and caring and not willing to accept the limitations even Diane sees in her daughter. Diane's love for her daughter is tenderness bordering on desperation. Amy, however, helps us to validate Julia as a fully realized person because she validates her. We did not need the spiel at the end. It did not tie up any loose ends since nearly all of the information had been given out earlier and Julia's comments do nothing to assure us of Amy and Diane's full recovery or the fate of Amy's mother, which would be new information at this point. It would have been much easier to swallow this tell-not-show summary if it was written as Julia's reminiscences of perhaps a year later following the patients' recovery and the subsequent wedding and life in the new house. This is a great story not managed as well as it could have been, but still worth reading.
surpassingly lovely.......2006-07-14
Utterly Compelling.
Poignant and achingly beautiful prose.
Heart renderingly bittersweet, and yet so uplifting.
What an amazing journey Luanne Rice leads us through.
There really are no leads in this book. She writes the
story with such even-handedness. Each character fully realized, including a cat and a dog.
There are several love stories here.
Man and Woman.
Mother and child. Father and daughter.
And friends of the heart.
Her ever so gentle portrait of the love of a family for a severely disabled child is stunning. Reading about
the child's physical problems and the care she requires is not depressing. It is inspirational.
Another child has problems other than medical. I loved her character. Anne of Green Gables is mentioned as a favorite book
of one of the characters. This book has the same gossamer quality of happy-healing-loving warmth.
Just a downright beautifully written, perfectly realized story.
A sweet story of the many kinds of love to be shared.......2005-11-01
Courtesy of CK2S Kwips and Kritiques
Dianne Robbins has had a rough life but has never given up. While pregnant, she was abandoned by her husband when they discovered the baby was severely handicapped and unlikely to ever have a normal life. Tim couldn't handle it and took off, leaving Dianne to pick up the pieces of her broken love.
Now, ten years later, Julia, her daughter, is still struggling through her life, with the help of Dianne, Dianne's mother Lucinda, and Juia's uncle and doctor, Alan, who is Dianne's former brother in law.
When Alan brings a young troubled girl, Amy into Dianne's life she finds that she has more love to share then imagined. Will she now open her heart to Alan, the man who has loved her silently and patiently, through it all?
This is a beautiful story of love lost, love found, and all the kinds of love a person can share. Listeners will feel the emotions along with Dianne and company, and come to know these people as friends.
Dianne is a strong woman who stands tough through all the blows life has dealt her, never giving up on her daughter, and never regretting the life she could have had if not for Julia. In Amy, she finds another outlet for the love she has to give, which brightens the young girl's heart and soul, giving her the peace and affection she can't find in her own home. Alan is steadfast in his devotion to Dianne and Julia, never quite hoping, but never giving up either, on the possibility of a deep soul-stirring love with Dianne.
The closing of the book, told from a different perspective from the rest of the story, adds a sweet touch. Some readers my find it unnecessary and too sappy, but I thought it was the perfect way to end the story.

Murders that shouldn't have been investigated.......2001-09-28
My single biggest difficulty with this book is that when all is said and done, everybody would have been a lot better off if our heroine, Desiree Shapiro, had simply left well enough alone, and NOT investigated. In fairness to the plotting, at each step of the way investigating looks like the reasonable thing to do. This makes it much easier to take than some mysteries where the investigator is finding out what happened for sheer nosiness. Desiree Shapiro is an interesting person, funny, self-deprecating, very ethical at the oddest times, and I will probably read more of this series. I just wish that I hadn't gotten to the end of the book, and decided that everyone would have been better off if Desiree had been in Timbuktu for the week.
Good mind candy for a hot summer's day........1997-07-21
Desiree Shapiro was new to me and I found I enjoyed her humor and writing style. The plot was a little thin, but made up for in amusement.There are two kinds of books; those that you just want to curl up and read, and those that you can read while doing 4 other things. Desiree Shapiro is an excellent book to occupy your mind while exercising.

great book, but what happened to that price?.......2000-10-17
This is a great Middle Eastern cook book that has served me well forten years. Thought I'd replace my copy but had a little sticker shockover the price.
Anyway the recipes are great, especially the mezzeor appetizers. I make the hummus and the baba ghanooj all the time(the pages are really stained there). END
Authentic, Luscious and easy to follow and prepare.......2000-03-29
I borrowed this book from a friend 4 years ago and copied two of the recipes There is one for Cous Cous which is excellent and easy to prepare and the sauce is wonderful. I had an opportunity to go to an authentic Morrocan restaurant and was surprised how much my Cous Cous tasted like theirs and I used his recipe and I have finally found the book after looking for so long

Great addition to Mediterranean Collection!.......2006-06-16
I was fortunate enough to run across this book in my library a couple of years ago, and have been searching for my own copy ever since. I finally found one (right condition/price) this week, and I can't wait for it to be delivered.
Not only do the recipes sound fabulous, but it is a "readable" book. Weiss-Armush explains from the perspective of an outsider rather than one born and raised in the region. She tells of her lessons learned, and mistakes made, and just generally offers a fascinating look at the world she entered.
Great information from culinary, cultural and social aspects.

I bought my book from Ann Marie while living in Saudi Arabia.......2005-06-14
I met Anne Marie Weiss-Armush while living and working in Saudi Arabia from 1983-1985.
She is a warm friendly person who participated in the International Woman's Guild which I was Vice President of.
I learned a lot about the Middle East and the Cuisine of the Middle East countries from her and her book.
I highly recommend it. The recipes are truly authentic and easy to make and delicious. I like that there are recipes representing several countries.
She has also included little stories about the recipes and the countries they are from. And she has a list of Arabic terms translated into English and a conversion table for foreign equivalents and the metric conversion table which are very useful.
My book is rather worn now as I have made many recipes from it and my family and guest have really enjoyed them all.
Book Description
Since marrying into a prominent Egyptian family ten years ago and traveling extensively in the region, culinary expert Amy Riolo has been discovering the cuisine of Arabia at lavish parties and palaces, in simpler homes, stylish restaurants, and marketplaces. Now she brings this rich and exotic cuisine to American cooks of all levels, giving time-honored techniques, step-by-step recipes, and lively menus for many occasions and the everyday. Sample breakfast delights like Wild Thyme Glazed Croissants. Savor Gulf-Style Calamari Soup and Chicken Kabsah, a delicious rice and chicken casserole that exudes the aroma of dried limes and the traditional Saudi spice mix. Dip into delicious dessert recipes like Melon K’nafeh, and Chocolate Covered-Almond Filled Dates. Sip mouthwatering drinks like Rose Water Cooler, and a variety of Arabian “cocktails” like Golden Dream, made with mandarin juice, peach, honey, saffron and milk.
Though Amy Riolo entertains like an Arabian princess, she is a practical American, as she reveals how to create an Arabian tea party worthy of royalty, and a Laylat ul Henna, the ultimate girls’ night in, when brides-to-be gather with female friends and family members for a night full of beauty, pampering, henna-tattooing, music, dancing, and of course, an array of tempting culinary treats. Most ingredients are available at your local supermarket, though the “Where to Buy Guide” gives mail-order sources for any that may be hard to find.

Book Description
Originally published in 1995, the first edition of Managing Your Mind established a unique place in the self-help book market. A blend of tried-and-true psychological counseling and no-nonsense management advice grounded in the principles of CBTand other psychological treatments, the book straddled two types of self-help literature, arguing that in one's personal and professional life, the way to success is the same. By adopting the practical strategies that mental health experts Butler and Hope have developed over years of clinical research and practice, one can develop the "mental fitness" necessary to resolve one's personal and interpersonal challenges at home and work and to live a productive, satisfying life. The first edition addressed how to develop key skills to mental fitness (e.g., managing one's time better, facing and solving problems better, keeping things in perspective, learning to relax, etc.), how to improve one's relationships, how to beat anxiety and depression, and how to establish a good mind-body balance. For this new edition, Butler and Hope have updated all preexisting material and have added five new chapters-on sexuality and intimate relationships; anger in relationships; recent traumatic events and their aftermath; loss and bereavement; and dealing with the past.

brilliant.......2006-03-31
a very clear and concise book. One of the best "self-help" books i have read. Intresting and fast, dosent preach like other books. No religious mumbo jumbo about god being your savior. If there is anyone who can help you, its you. They show you how.
This book changed my life!.......2003-01-17
Great educational read. Stimulating. Straight forward and easy to read chapters. This book helped me through one of the worse times in my life.
Some excellent skills with some major philosophical problems.......2002-05-07
It's unusual for me to read chapters of a book out of order. Had I read this book from front to back, I would have angrily tossed it out when I hit chapters 3 and 4. The authors have not had the pleasure of grasping the virtue of selfishness. Instead, they occasionally apologize and appease. In these early chapters they recommend "unconditional positive regard" stating that it's "not selfish, nor egoistic" to have this attitude towards ourselves. This chapter is a philosophical junkyard. They ask why we admire a Mother Teresa and answer that it's because she sacrifices herself for others. They ask "Would you admire her if she sacrificed herself for something worthless?" and omit the possibility that she is not admirable because she lived a life of sacrifice by choice and encourages others to do likewise. The authors also invent the contradictory concept of the "unselfish I."
So heaven help me! Why would I recommend such a book? I recommend it because it is chock full of simple good tips - e.g., good study skills, identifying and pursuing healthy goals to bring you pleasure, keeping friendships fair - with a lovely undercurrent of egoism despite occasional nosedives. For example, "Cultural attitudes, including religious ones, seem to make rewarding oneself seem bad..." (Were it my book, I would omit the "seem to") - or "Do not make a virtue out of being a martyr." The mix of good and bad ideas in this book makes me wonder if one author was philosophically healthier than the other one. This book offers valuable thinking skills. I recommend skipping chapters 1-3. This is a good book to keep in your reference library. If you are having difficulty with a particular issue in your life, read the chapter on that. Some skills that are helpful include:
- "swat" the NATs (negative automatic thoughts)
- distant elephants (do not commit yourself to unimportant activities no matter how far ahead they are)
- focus on important but non-urgent activities, rather than urgent non-important activities
- avoid "pressurizing" words: "should, must, have to, ought" which drain motivation
- avoid avoidance - actively solve your problems rather than run from them
- reduce the "inside" load of stress by changing attitudes
- learn how to unpackage your fears
- motivate yourself by focusing on the personal benefits of your success
A great, great book.......2002-04-21
I hope the authors know how many people they have helped with this book. Perhaps they can update it for the latest stresses that the accelerated information age and the post-September 11th world have brought.
As others have said, I wish I had read this book in my teenage years.
