Publisher's Summary:
Sibyl is either dying - or just dying to cause trouble.Sympathy for a man-hunting siren? Sibyl says shes dying. But this sexy new neighbor in a small Georgia town, circa 1960, may be lying. After all, her main goal seems to be milking her story in order to keep her husband, Robert, under her thumb while also enchanting his best friend, P.W.
For plain-Jane Earlene, P.W.s wife, Sibyls suspicious motives include a bewildering mix of syrupy kindness and sly cruelty. Earlenes attempts to point out Sibyls behavior to others in town sound petty toward a dying woman. Who is Sibyl, really? Her lavish spending hints at a hidden source for money, since Robert isnt rich. How is it possible to be both repelled and hypnotized by her? There are secrets waiting to be exposed.

Two Shades of Morning
Native SonsInnuendo is never in style with country folks. They say what they mean and mean what they say. Earlene and P.W are a couple. Sybil her enemy comes on the scene and P.W. falls in love with her. They say a man falls in love with a woman in direct proportion to the differences between them. That appears to be the case with P.W. Sybil acts the role of sophistication and he is just a good old country boy astounded by the differences he sees in her. For a woman's husband to be intimate with another woman and her enemy to boot was one thing but to fall in love with her was quite something else. Robert Dale Sybil's' husband is kind of shallow, and he plays the role of Sybil's enabler. This novel in one of my favorite by Janice. The dialogue is from that era the facts are an important part of the story adding realism to a lazy sort of shade tree drama. Earlene quickly tires of the whole mess and little by little I saw the changes in her character as she matured and began her growth out of the woods she was raised in and away from the rednecks she was raised around. While she matured with the words of the author I am sure her cultural prerogatives will stay the same. [Nothing wrong with rednecks by the way I have many in my family.] Two Shades of Morning is a fine book and one that I am pleased to be the first to review. Marshall L Dell
Dying Days with a Southern Flair!
I am a lover of southern literature! This author has captured the art of writing in true southern fashion. I never thought I would enjoy a book about someone's dying days, but this story line had me wondering when death would be knocking next door in an unexpected way. The conversational style reminded me of my great grandparents and my deep south childhood. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys an interesting plot mixed in with a good dose of southern flair.
"...so young and alive and dying."
Once again Pulitzer-nominated author, Janice Daugharty, has beckoned us back into a small town in Georgia to meet a few of the residents there and to let us into their lives for the length of her latest book, "Two Shades of Morning." In Little Town, GA, the talk of the town in 1960 centers around Robert Dale Sharpe's new wife from Orlando, FL. Her name is Sibyl and she is young, beautiful, blonde, sexy and she is dying. At least that's the word that everyone has heard and can't understand why Robert Dale would marry a girl who doesn't have long to live.
