Search - The Next Step in the Dance

Engaging novel by a Southern author - contented husband, restless wife, who both come to realize the importance of their home and their marriage. Good love story as well as adventure story.

A true picture of life in south Louisiana that took me back to when I lived there. Couldn't put it down.

Very enjoyable read. I loved the setting in the deep South.

Well written, fast paced story.

I enjoyed Gautreaux's "The Clearing" so much I thought I would give this one a read, and I am so glad I did. This is a Louisiana story about 2 people easy to become attached to because of the way Mr. Gautreaux uses his real life southern Louisiana writing to grab the reader and not release you until you have read the last word on the very last page, and then wish there was more. You will follow them from their southern habitat to California and back to a hard scrabble existence in their beloved bayou country. It has a love story that is binds humor, adventure, adversity, and adventure into a great read. Try it you will like it as I did.

This is a great book. Read it for book club just before hearing him speak at the Louisiana Book Festival. Describes the culture of the time in Louisiana extremely well. Great characters.
