Rhoda Janzen, the Michigan author of # 1 New York Times bestselling author of Mennonite in a Little Black Dress, is back with a hilarious and heartfelt memoir about her return to faith and love all while battling breast cancer in DOES THIS CHURCH MAKE ME LOOK FAT? A Mennonite Finds Faith, Meets Mr. Right, and Solves Her Lady Problems (Grand Central Publishing Hardcover; 9781455502882; October 2, 2012, $24.99). While it sounds like a heavy read, I can't emphasize enough how light her touch or how hilarious her perspective is. As the three-star PEOPLE review put it, the book is "Breezy despite the weighty subject matter."
