About Burtrum Lee: Coated with a life of lies and deceit, Burtrum Lee Conner is sick to her stomach. Dozens of times throughout her life the feeling of not being who she is has tormented her. But she kept it to herself, believing that maybe it’s just a chemical imbalance of some kind considering she is one of the first artificially-inseminated babies of the 1960s. Now, there’s more though, something much deeper, much more maniacal than she could have ever imagined. She’s not the first test tube baby at all, but the first… Burtrum Lee Conner, born into a world of scientific mystery, discovers that the life she’s been leading for the past forty years, is the wrong one. Her parents, Jed and Jane Conner, stealing her as an infant, brought Lee up as their own. Even her devoted grandmother, Clair Conner, kept this secret close to her chest until they were found out.

Dr. Leona Stucky’s WOW! WOMEN ON WRITING TOUR OF The Fog of Faith Stops today at Bring on Lemons with a review by Michelle DelPonte 5 Star Review: In so many ways, I am speechless. The life that Dr. Leona Stucky has not only survived, but thrived with, is astounding. “The Fog of Faith Surviving My Impotent God” has taken me on a roller coaster ride of emotions that I never expected to feel. There were to many nights that I simply could not put the book down, and stayed up all night. I have reread numerous chapters in complete disbelief of what I had just read. I found myself in shock and horror, yet encouragement, love, and most importantly hope. While I know these events took place years ago, I still find myself praying for Dr. Leona and her family, including the man who nearly took everything away from her. As a Christian and caregiver, I believe that prayer has a power to move mountains. Why is it that in times of strife, we turn from Him instead of towards Him? Dr. ...

Dr. Leona Stucky’s WOW! WOMEN ON WRITING TOUR OF The Fog of Faith Stops today at Bring on Lemons with a review by Crystal J. Casavant-Otto 5 Star Review: The provocative title of Dr. Stucky's book scared me a bit. Ok, it scared me a lot; the word impotent in reference to God stopped me in my tracks. I'm a Lutheran and and active in my faith and my religion and the title of this book is very provocative but was off-putting for me at first. I know how important it is to follow the age old rule of "don't judge a book by it's cover" and in this case, I didn't stop at the title of Dr. Stucky's book. I cracked the cover and dug right in without letting my own ideas, religion, and background stand in my way. I'm certainly glad I read this book and it didn't take long for me to really appreciate the path Dr. Stucky has traveled. I've never thought of my God as helpless, and yet as I read page after page, I couldn't imagine a more fitting t...

About the Book:  The Jews of Aleppo, Syria, had been part of the city’s fabric for more than two thousand years, in good times and bad, through conquerors and kings. But in the middle years of the twentieth century, all that changed. To Selim Sutton, a merchant with centuries of roots in the Syrian soil, the dangers of rising anti-Semitism made clear that his family must find a new home. With several young children and no prospect of securing visas to the United States, he devised a savvy plan for getting his family out: “exporting” his sons. In December 1940, he told the two oldest, Meïr and Saleh, that arrangements had been made for their transit to Shanghai, where they would work in an uncle’s export business. China, he hoped, would provide a short-term safe harbor and a steppingstone to America. But the world intervened for the young men, now renamed Mike and Sal by their Uncle Joe. Sal became ill with tuberculosis soon after arriving and was sent back to Aleppo alone....
