Leslie Bustard is an author, teacher, home-schooling mom, and literature afficionado; she is known for her lectures through Veritas Academy, and published several guides for comprehension of classic literary texts. (Leslie's husband, Ned, also offered an endorsement of The Exact Place; the Bustard family are good friends of Margie's.)Leslie has this to say about Margie's memoir, The Exact Place:
"Since my early twenties when I discovered Madeline L’Engle’s spiritual autobiographies, I have been drawn to memoir writing. My curiosity in how people make sense of their lives mixed with the love of a well-written sentence has kept my interest in this genre alive. Reading Margie Haack’s seasonal writings, confessions, and deliberations on grace in Notes from Toad Hall for over a decade has been more than just a curiosity fulfillment. Her life and writings have been friends along the path of my life. Every time I have read her writings, I have fallen more in love with God, my husband, my children, my home, and the story God is writing in our lives. Notes from Toad Hall and now this lovely book, The Exact Place, makes ordinary life just what it is — redeemed, beautiful, and full of grace. I look forward to sharing this book with friends in hopes that it will affirm them in the stories of their lives.
Thank you Leslie!
