Praise for Patricia Hickman and Katrina's Wings from other best-selling authors:

"I was captivated by Katrina's Wings, an irresistible novel with unique charm and depth. This is Ms. Hickman's absolute best!" —Robin Lee Hatcher

"The pain of growing up is dramatized skillfully by Hickman, and by the time
Katrina reaches her goal, the reader has identified with her. A fine treatment of the growth of an artist-and of a human being!" —Gilbert Morris

"Katrina's Wings takes the reader on a journey through the introspective places of the soul to a place where love is launched and faith begins." —Karen Kingsbury

"Keep some tissues handy, and be prepared to laugh as well. Beautiful language,

    Not really worth the time to read it.

    This book was very boring. No climax whatsoever. The ending was a huge disappointment. It was well recommended by one of my favorite authors, but I was extremely disappointed by it.

    Wonderful Book!

    This is a 'keeper' for me, one that I'll only be lending out to the friends who are faithful to return books! The writing is beautiful and so authentically southern, and the story so gripping that I could hardly stand to put it down. Ms. Hickman is a remarkable talent--I can't wait for her next book!
