How could I have forgotten a year as good as 2011? I suspect it was a good reading year but an exhausting lawyer year which must be why I never posted this list, now recreated:

One Was a Soldier by Julia Spencer-Fleming

Kathryn Stockett (entertaining, and was another book group read, but Count Them One By One remains my favorite book about Mississippi - and is dedicated to me)
