Cute and very much SOUTHERN story and people. But as children we might relate if we too had childhood friends that were compelling and loved us in spite of our faults. I recommend. I watched the movie and wasn't aware it was based on a book at all. There are actually a total of 3 then a later one sometimes listed as a fourth. I purchased all 4 at once used and have yet to read the last two. Some readers stop with the first book. Not sure why. But it perhaps satisfies their life just with the right note of fill up for a good read. But I'm enjoying the rest of the authors journey and find it worth reading them all. I recommend. It's more a girl flick and the books are probably more a lean into for girls and ladies of all ages. A 12-14 year old might enjoy the books too. Even children as I find nothing wrong with reading adult content books as long as it doesn't cross the line in it's presentations and subject matters. It is not a long read and it's not classic writing. It's just lovely story telling and weaving of characters lives and personalities and it's good. I think the movie industry should make a few more of these books or a sequel at least based on the authors writings. Might give some older actors continued work and we ourselves if getting up there can always enjoy those ladies work. Maggie Smith just to name one. I'm a fully northern gal raised and born in MT but these books brought a lot of charm and good memories with childhood friends too. Read full review
