Household Puzzles
Pansy
Read by TriciaG





Household Puzzles peeks into the life of the Randolph family, four daughters and one son. They are financially strapped but must follow societal expectations . . . and the expectations of Helen, the eldest daughter, who is a slave to the whims of society. Half the family are professing Christians, but only the father really lives it out. Helen's marriage, Tom's job in a saloon, their cousin's visit, and other events all have an impact that reverberate through the family. (Intro by TriciaG) (7 hr 58 min)

Reviews
a Pansy triumph





okra
I didn't think that Pansy had it in her to write as disagreeable a character as Helen Randolph. Oh my goodness, The number of times I got worked up over how utterly self-absorbed and self-righteous that girl could be with her family. I wanted to shake her and throw her out of the house. Good literature creates strong feelings.
A little slow at the start

I enjoyed this book but found it a bit hard to get into for the first couple of chapters. I enjoy everything read by Tricia G.
Entertaining & Inspiring
