Saving CeeCee Honeycutt is a beautiful story about self-discovery, family, and the quirkiness of human nature. It is touching and wise with a laugh-out-loud sense of humor. CeeCee is a wonderful narrator with an engaging voice and her perspectives are simultaneously moving, fascinating, and funny as she observes her eccentric Southern neighbors. Beth Hoffman deftly weaves CeeCee's story as she copes with grief and growing up while learning what it means to have real family. The descriptions are lush and evocative - you can almost smell the flowers blooming - but never overdone. I felt as if I was transported to CeeCee's world for a short time. I absolutely loved this book and I wholeheartedly recommend it. I am looking forward to more treasures from this very talented author.
