I have read A Time to Rend, A Time to Sew, and really enjoyed it. Which of her books is next in order (I understand it is a series). I don't want to read summaries too closely and spoil anything for myself.

TIA

The main series is centered around the characters from Wildflower, so read that and then all the others are sort of continuations of that.

Love love her books. I think also if you can't get your hands on one in the right order it's ok since after Wildflower and A Time to rend, A Time to sew each book pretty much stands on its own (I couldn't find As mountains around Jerusalem for the longest time so I read whatever comes next, I think it's called orange blossoms? Was a few years ago).

ATTR, ATTS and Wildflower can both be read as stand-alones, but also form the background for the rest of the stories:
Cactus Blossoms comes after Wildflower
As Mountains Around Jerusalem
Bells and Pomegranates comes next I think
Then Crossing the Divide, then Orange Groves, then Bridges Across the World (new)

…as far as I remember, it’s been a few years since I read some of her works.

Love her books!!

Wildflower overlaps timewise A Time to Rend, A Time to Sew, but the characters don't really interact until the later books.

Pretty sure that Crossing the Divide is standalone, it's an entirely different set of characters.

As Mountains Around Jerusalem is also more of a standalone book, although some of the previous characters play a small part.

I understand that Bridges Across the World is a prequel to Cactus Blossoms and Bells and Pomegranates, but my copy still hasn't come so I can't confirm that...

These books are SO highly rereadable, I dearly love them!

Where can I find the older books? Do stores still carry them?
