  Acclaim for Harriet Beamer Takes the Bus

  Nobody writes characters like Joyce Magnin, and Harriet Beamer does not disappoint. A story that’s all heart; you’ll be cheering Harriet on with every page.

  JENNY B. JONES, award-winning author of Save the Date and There You’ll Find Me

  Absolutely delightful! There’s surely a bit of Harriet Beamer in all of us — that mixture of trepidation but desire for adventure, and a relishing of God’s pleasure in becoming all He’s created us to be. I’d barely swiped away my tears before breaking into new peals of laughter. Harriet Beamer Takes the Bus is Joyce Magnin’s best yet.

  CATHY GOHLKE, award-winning author of Promise Me This

  If you want to feel God’s pleasure, take this delightfully unpredictable journey with Harriet Beamer and the unrivalled Queen of Quirk, Joyce Magnin. I know of no other author who can bring the truth of the Gospel so close to earth and yet lift the reader so high. Ya gotta get on this bus.

  NANCY RUE, Christy Award-winning author of The Reluctant Prophet

  You’ll love Joyce Magnin’s tale of a grandmother’s unconventional cross-country trip toward family togetherness.

  RICHARD L. MABRY, MD, author of the Prescription for Trouble Series

  Grab your toothbrush and pack extra jammies — you’re in for quite a ride! Harriet Beamer rocks.

  REBECCA PRICE JANNEY, author of nineteen books, including On a Steed of Iron

  Harriet Beamer’s adventure sparks that longing in all of us to who, as Thoreau said, when it’s time to die, don’t want to discover that we have never truly lived. I fell in love with Harriet when she decided that money, a cell phone, and God were all she needed for her journey. And what she comes to learn in her travels is a lesson for life—that being who God intended us to be can bless others beyond measure.

  CHRISTA ALLAN, author of Love Finds You in New Orleans, Edge of Grace, and Walking on Broken Glass
