Books That Make Me Go....Ahhhh

I know it's been awhile since I posted my notable excerpt for the week, but really, I will try to post every Friday!  These gems that catch my eye deserve much more notoriety besides being written down on a little sticky note in the front of the novel.

This one from Looking for Salvation at the Dairy Queen put a big old smile on my face:
Every preacher must need a place where he can hide from his flock, and that garden must have been my granddaddy's spot.  He probably felt closer to God hidden among those stalks of corn than anywhere else on this earth, probably the way I felt sitting on that picnic table at the Dairy Queen.
