Thank you so much, Jennette. You're correct, it wasn't a bad book, and I would read this author again. 🤗❤️

Thanks very much, Kathryn. I'm so glad you enjoyed the read. 🤗❤️
Fair review, Shelley!❤️ Sorry this didn't work out better. I too don't fare well with books that are more prose than plot.

great review, shelley! slow paced books can be a bit or miss for me, depending on why they’re slow and how that pace is being used. glad you could still appreciate some parts of this!
Oh those slow books...I understand. I wish I had a speed read set in my brain...Great review Shelley.
An honest review, Shelley! Sounds like it had its moments, but overall, it didn't make the impact it could have.
I am finding myself less patient with books that are slow pacing. I wonder, could it be my age? Thank you for your wonderful and honest review Shelley! ☺️

Fair points Shelley. I love books set in the Appalachian mountains too - shame this one didn’t hit closer to the mark.

I have no patience either, I am like the lady watering the front garden yelling, "Get off my lawn!" at the kids.
Outstanding review, Shelley. Too bad this Southern story was so slow and wordy. Does not sound like my cup of tea, either.☕
Wonderful review, Shelley! Glad you still found some things to enjoy about this story even though overall it missed the mark. 🌸🤗🌸
