Running from Mercy (JAN 2008)
Where There's Smoke (JAN 2009)
A Peek Into the Minds of Readers...
Where There's Smoke...
"Ignore the misleading cover. This well-written novel will appeal to every type of reader and would make an excellent book club pick." - Library Journal
"Don't be misled by the cover,what's between them makes Where There's Smoke a pleasure to read and highly recommended." - Amazon.com
"I actually thought I knew every good author, but I missed this one, sorry to say. This book was a hilarious page turner that I am so glad that I picked up. If you want a book that tells a story of love, betrayal and triump of the human spirit, pick this book up. I dare you to be able to put it down without reading the whole thing!" - Amazon.com
"So if you are one of the many people who was extremely disappointed with Sister Souljah's new book please do yourself a favor and get this one. Smoke is the character that many of us dreamed Midnight would be like. I literally read this book in less than 24 hours and I really hope she writes another book soon because it was a great story!" - Amazon.com
"Where There's Smoke has an excellent story line that's fast paced and driven by her witty wordplay. The story is told in the voice of each character adding depth and excellent character development. Each character is believable and readers will not only relate to each character but root for them as they attempt to overcome their pasts and prevent their son from making the same mistakes." - Coast2Coast Readers
"The best ever for Sister 2 Sister Book Club. This books started off with and bang and keeps you going,we didn't want to put it down till we got to the last page.Terra Little kept Sister 2 Sister Book Club on the edge of our seats wanting more; was really sad when we finished the book 'cause it makes you want more; no makes you need to come back for more." - Sister2Sister Book Club
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Running from Mercy...
"Even after I finished the book I had to flip back through to read my favorite parts several times (my hubby thought that was hilarious). I will definitely add this author to my list of those to watch!" - Amazon.com
"Terra Little has written an engaging novel of family, lies, and secrets, and self-discovery. The characters had natural flaws and the storyline flowed. I found myself needing to turn the next page to find out what was going to happen, and praying what I wanted to happen between the characters would happen!" - Literary Lovers Book Club
"RUNNING FROM MERCY written by Terra Little is uniquely creative. Abundant are the family ties, romance, as well as suspense, making for a good, quick read. I would definitely recommend this book." - OOSA Online Book Club
"While contemporary in nature, the story of Mercy, GA is reminiscent of the old towns down south where many of us visit our elders every summer. Our roots are engrained in the soil, and our feelings and emotions linger in the air. In RUNNING FROM MERCY, Terra Little captures those emotions and reminds us of those deep secrets that our hearts have endured." - Amazon.com

NPR's All Thing's Considered
Waging War On Distracted Driving
Nineteen states have banned texting while driving. It's part of a growing movement to crack down on mobile phone usage behind the wheel that is reminiscent of earlier campaigns against drunk driving.Thanksgiving At The White House
At the White House Thanksgiving dinner Thursday, there were no surprises on the menu. There was turkey and honey-baked ham, cornbread and oyster stuffing, sweet potato and mashed potatoes and six kinds of pie. Fifty guests were on the list, including staff, friends and family.Personal Rapid Transit: Future Or Elevated Fantasy?
Transportation planners are banking on a futuristic network of ecofriendly computer-automated pod cars as the next smart form of mass transit. Several U.S. cities are doing feasibility studies for personal rapid transit systems, and Britain's Heathrow Airport plans to launch its system in the spring.Jerusalem's Palestinians Allege Expulsion Campaign
Palestinians hope East Jerusalem will be the capital of their future state, but successive Israeli governments have stated that the city is the undivided capital of Israel. Now, Palestinians in East Jerusalem allege that there is a campaign being waged against them to divest them of their property through expulsions and demolitions to make the Israeli goal a reality.In N.Y. Museum, Renewable Materials On Display
Store shelves these days are packed with products claiming to be "eco-friendly." But it's hard to know exactly what that means. An exhibition in New York tackles that question with the help of 10 top designers. The Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum — together with the Nature Conservancy — asked the designers to create surprising products out of renewable materials from 10 different areas in the world.Listeners Share Nontraditional Thanksgiving Stories
While many Americans strive for the usual Thanksgiving fare, some listeners revel in their own, idiosyncratic family traditions this time of year. Gene Koo goes to White Castle with friends every year, and Kim Kryzwy serves up a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving feast for her kids for the second meal of the day.Virginia Couple Crashed White House Dinner
the Obama White House held its first state dinner Wednesday in honor of Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. It was an event full of pomp and circumstance, bringing together more than 300 dignitaries from the world of politics and entertainment. The guest list was exclusive, and the security tight. But a couple from Virginia managed to crash the event. Amy Zantzinger, social secretary for President George W. Bush from 2007-2009, says this might be the first time a White House party was crashed.Top German Officials Quit Over Afghan Airstrike
The head of Germany's armed forces and a senior official from the defense ministry resigned Thursday following allegations the ministry withheld information about civilian casualties sustained during an airstrike in Afghanistan in September. Christian Thiels, senior defense correspondent for the German television network ARD, says the two officials who resigned knew of the civilian casualties.Restaurant Owner Recalls Mumbai Attack
One year ago, 10 gunmen laid siege to the city of Mumbai, India, attacking hotels, a Jewish center and other sites. More than 160 people were killed. One of the locations targeted by the gunmen was the city's Leopold Cafe. Farzad Jehani, one of the owners of the cafe, says the cafe organized a live band, and many of those patrons present on the day of the attacks returned to mark the event.Report Accuses Catholic Church Of Abuse Cover-Up
A new report in Ireland — the second such report this year — says the Roman Catholic Church in the Dublin Archdiocese covered up decades of child abuse committed by priests. The inquiry accuses Catholic bishops of protecting the Church's reputation at the expense of the children in its care.Forums
