Customer Reviews

Good book.

I loved Mrs. Mike & the Search for Joyful. This book is not as good, but it’s still one ill keep and read again.

Enjoyed it

I loved Mrs. Mike, was underwhelmed by The Search for Joyful and glad I decided to read this third book in the series, Kathy Little Bird. Glad I did. I very much enjoyed this one. Just as is the case with many movies, sequels don't always measure up to the original. I like reading book series and overall the Mrs. Mike books are one of the best I've read. Three generations of interesting women and their stories. All very different but tied together with their history.

Pretty Good

This book is SO MUCH better than that terrible book, Search for Joyful. Granted, there are some unanswered questions in the story, still this is a good book. The writing is much more clear and easy to read, and the main character, Kathy is so much more likeable and not so wishy washy like the Kathy in Search for Joyful. In this book, Kathy is the daughter of Kathy Forquet and Erich Von Kerll, she has never met her father, and wonders about him constantly during her difficulties with her stepfather. She has a talent for singing, and finds that lots of people like her singing. She eventually marries a con-artist, which is one of the mistakes that she makes. This book is much easier to read and much more enjoyable. However, there is nothing explained about Mrs. Mike, she is only mentioned in several sentences, not to mention other characters in Search for Joyful. Also, a little unclear is the time between Search for Joyful and Kathy Little Bird. Things which aren't that well explained take place during this story. Despite the unclear history, this is still a really good story, not like Mrs. Mike, but so much better than Search for Joyful it's almost unbelievable.
