"Now that the clan of families has arrived in Texas, the work to make the land their own begins. The seeds from Tennessee are planted as soon as the ground is cleared bringing forth tiny shoots of green and joy to the farmers. What a great deal of work, but so worth it in the end. With marriages, babies and new families a tiny community is born, bringing with it many dreams. Is it possible that with learning to lean on the Lord those dreams will finally overshadow the hurts of the past? This continuing saga is a most enjoyable way to learn more about the settling of Texas.

  • While there was a timeline flaw, Caryl has corrected it and the story flows marvelously. So, I've changed my review from 4 stars to 5.
    That said, I really had a hard time putting this book down. Gabriellle's story was so intriguing, I just had to know if she's finally come to the right end.
    Took me less than a day to read and an upset husband that I wouldn't go to sleep.
    All of Caryl McAdoo's books are well worth reading. Romantic, historical, christian.
  • I enjoyed reading this book about 4 families from TN who settled in east Texas. I was surely glad when Gabrielle realized she was not seeing all the truth about things in the past. I was amazed that Thomas Baldwin had patience with her, as long as it took and with all her mixed up thoughts and words. I was happy that Isabel found a husband who treated her well. It was good to see that Mr. Harrell was still a changed man and using his skills to help the clan.
  • 4 Stars I love this author's writing style and love the characters. This book was not as good as book 1. Disappointed it ended at 88%. Gabby's complaints through the entire book got old quickly.
  • Texas My Texas is a Christian historical romance book by author Caryl McAdoo. The setting is between the Delaware Creek and Trinity River ~ 1841.

    This book is the second in the Cross Timber Romance Family Saga series. I wanted to read this book because I love historical fiction and my favorite is the 1800’s. In this story I learned that Creole means part French, Spanish, and African. I also learned that a German invented the first sewing machine.

    I appreciate that God and Christianity are spoken highly of in this story. I will remember this author as a writer who doesn’t take for granted one is saved. In her writings, she knows just the right questions to ask without taking into assumption someone is saved. For instance, a person is not saved through baptism. They are baptized in obedience to following Christ after they are saved, or become a Christian. Also, knowing about God does not save a person. Only trusting in Him will make one a Christian.

    I recommend this novel to fans of Christian historical fiction.

  • As a former history teacher, I love history. As a novel writer, I love fiction. Put the two together, and you have historical fiction—one of the most enjoyable ways to learn about history.

    If it’s done well.

    In order to be immersed into the story—to feel I’m a part of it—it’s critical that the visuals (description) and the dialogue be accurate. In Caryl McAdoo’s book Texas My Texas, she does it well. So well, I was scratching my head at times trying to figure out what the characters were saying. I didn’t have a cheat sheet or a translator. But that’s okay, because it was authentic.

    Texas My Texas is Book Two of the Cross Timbers Family Saga. I recommend that you read Book One in the series (Gone to Texas) before Book Two if you don’t want to spend the first several chapters trying to figure out who’s who. The series is about a “clan” of people who move west from Tennessee to Texas. I felt as if I was dropped into the middle of a movie and didn’t have a clue who any of the characters were. This was partly my fault, as I wasn’t even aware it was part of a series. I just started reading. After a little research, I discovered that Book One actually gives the reader a quick synopsis of the characters and how they relate.

    My intention is to now read Book One, not only because I now know the characters, but because I want the whole story. In fact, I’ve become partial to many of the players and would love to see where they started.

    Thomas Baldwin was my favorite character. What a sweet, godly man. Maybe I loved him so much because he reminds me of my husband. Patient, gentle, kind. Did I say patient? He had to be, because he was dealing with Gabrielle. She was self-involved, more than a little whiny, and not a speck of discernment in her DNA. But as she developed throughout the story, she grew on me.

    I will admit, however, that not everything about this book is perfect.

    I’m an editing snob. As well as teaching history, I also taught English. I get frustrated by question marks where periods belong, missing commas and comma splices (two full sentences being separated by a comma rather than a period or semi-colon). That may not bother you, but it is a pet peeve of mine. Self-publishing is a wonderful avenue for writers, and Caryl McAdoo is such a good writer, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her books. My suggestion for her, though, is to find a great editor.

    There was also the occasional modern vernacular used that took me out of the story for a brief moment. Nothing very obvious, but worth a mention.

    If not for the editing glitches, I would have given Caryl McAdoo’s novel four out of five stars—which holds true for you if punctuation isn’t an issue. As it is, for those of us who stumble over such trivialities, I’m giving her a three out of five.

    I was given a free copy of this novel for review purposes and the opinions expressed in this review are mine.
