"Hello! I am an English teacher at Vancouver College and I just discovered Augusta! I have already read three and am loving them.
I cannot wait to tell my students about them..." Reader...RA
"Dear Ms. Ballard,
I have read the 1st 4 Augusta Goodnight mysteries and really love them. They are true escapism. Only trouble is, they make me
super-hungry! I look forward to many more in the series. Sincerely,"... Reader...pdr
"Hi, I just wanted to let you know how much I love your books. I love Augusta! I live in NH & I'm a buyer for a chain of bookstores.
...... my husband & I will be going to Charleston & Savannah for a vacation. I think it will be fun to see some of the area that
your books take place in..." Reader...cd
"Dear Mrs. Ballard, I picked up an Augusta Goodnight for some study on how to write a mystery, and I was simply delighted. You've made
up such a wonderful batch of stories. Thank you for sharing..." Reader...LL
"Just to say thank you. Found your books at a stressful time and was enchanted by your characters and their stories. In the early 50's,
my sisters and I would lie on crypts in the cemetery and tell ghost stories. They tended to sound alike and were no where as
imaginative as yours. I trust you are in good health and at work on your next offering. (No pressure here). Thanks again," ...
Reader...NM
"Thank you so much for writing this delightful series. I have so enjoyed reading the "Augusta" series. Will there be another book in
this series? I surely hope so. Thank you for your time..." Reader...KAB
"I love the Augusta Goodnight series and am about to read the most recent book, The Angel Whispered Danger. I actually cried at the
end of some of them when August left the person she was helping. Great books and powerful emotions with underlying messages…..keep
writing and write faster!!!"... Reader...SM
"I so thoroughly enjoy your books. I wish you would write many more of them. Now I have no more Augusta Goodnight books to read.
Back to cross stitching. Hope to see another book very soon. Thanks..." Reader...JL
"...at Park Road Books you autographed a book for my sister's 59th birthday and one for me. It took me about four
months to finally pick it up and within 5 weeks I've now acquired the complete set of your Augusta Goodnight. They have brought me
smiles, laughs, characters who feel like old & new friends, and I thank you so much for it all. You've been a bright spot and I look
forward to hopefully more in the future. The recipes are a great idea too. All the senses are used in reading your great books!
Thanks again..." Reader...MJH
"I have just discovered your wonderful "Augusta Goodnight" series and have devoured them. The first one I read had a heroine named
"Arminda". My family had had Arminda's in in for many generations. .... the book also featured Harrison Ivey.
My husband is an Ivey. So many of the places you mention
are so familiar, as is the local language. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience. I hope to read more of Augusta..."

"The first book by you that I read was so enjoyable that I asked my librarian to request any of your books from our ordering system
in the state. Look forward to all of the "angels". Keep writing..." Reader...JF
"Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that I just recently found your books. My local bookstore only had two, had to find the others elsewhere
but now have the complete Augusta Goodnight series..." Reader...JJ
"Let me start by saying that I have never written a "fan letter"...except to the New Kids on the Block when I was 12. (ahh...youth) Anyway,
I just want to tell you how much I have enjoyed reading the Augusta Goodnight novels. I happened upon them while at my library and have just
picked up 3 of your other mystery books as well. Being from Winston-Salem, NC and having gone to school at Clemson University, I have
seen a lot of the Carolinas. When I read your books I feel like I am back at home with my family. Thank you..." Reader...TT
"I just finished "Angel at Troublesome Creek" last night. I read this trilogy out of order, as I found "An Angel to
Die For" first, then "Shadow of an Angel". Thank you so much for these delightful books. I enjoyed them so much; the character development
was fascinating, and I really like your heroines, full of gumption! I do hope you are planning on writing more about Augusta? I really
enjoy a light mystery (I get enough of the other kind of reality in my day job!) especially well written with a sense of humor..."
