Although this book was good and enjoyable it wasn't very original. The whole time I was reading it I kept thinking of Alice Hoffman. This was so like her writing. If I hadn't known who the author was I would have assumed the author was AH.

This was a beautiful and fun, light read -- mixing a little bit of magic with culinary expertise, this book dives into North Carolina southern hospitality, small towns, local legends, and straight gossip. The debut novel for Sarah Addison Allen, and I can't wait for her next book out in 2008. Highly recommend!

Unless you are 14 I wouldnt waste my time on this one. It was cute, but the apple throwing trees reminded me too much of the wizard of oz, and the rest was like Practical Magic.......

Mystical, haunting, tragic and uplifting. The story of the Waverly sisters is like many stories of many sisters. Except this one involves a special tree. Eccentric and somewhat private, the Waverlys have grown apart. When one returns they must find a way to form a bond they never really had in the first place. A timely lesson in family, friendships and love.

At first I didn't think I would like the book because of a profanity in the beginning, but I ended up loving it. Great imagination.
