"Read it - you may not want to see yourself in the words, but you'll be there all the same! This is a book that should be shared because there are too many Bernitas and Douglases and MaBishas and Busters and Babes and Vans and Re Members and Tricias walking around being clueless and unloved."

“Berry packs a lot into a folksy, feel-good little novel narrated by a meddling ghost…delightful.”
— Publishers Weekly“When Love Calls, You Better Answer is true testament to faith and forgiveness. I fell in love with it from the first page! This witty and wise narrative invites readers to digest time-honored truisms. Ms. Berry is sure to satisfy the literary souls of both new and old fans.”
— Norma L. Jarrett, author of Sunday Brunch" Short book, easy read. The story of Benita's search for love and self acceptance is told by Aunt Babe, from the "spirit world". Rich in folksy wisdom and humour, it nevertheless packs a punch. While I wasn't fond of the ending (a little to hokey for me), I will look for other books by this author. "
— Erika, 3/22/2012" For those that know me, you will understand that this is not generally my kind of book. Bertice Berry was a keynote speaker at a conference I was at and I found her to be really funny and uplifting so I decided to try this book. A little cheesey at times but a quick read and a good message. "
