Helpful Score: 3
A nice, relaxing read... does deal with themes of infidelity, custody battles, and anorexia (if you're sensitive to those issues.) The book feels like a visit to see old friends... it could probably stand alone, but you'll get more from it if you've read the others in the Sweet Magnolias series, as it refers to back stories often. I liked that this book & the next 2 will focus on some of the town's younger characters.
I did find myself getting a bit frustrated with Annie's hard-headedness and unforgiveness towards the end, but then the ending was definitely rushed- it just kind of "drops you off" in the middle of nowhere with a quick "I forgive you" to the hero, then a "wait for the next book". (Good thing I've already got the next two!) The book does do a nice job of making you want to read the next two in the series... which are centered around Annie's two childhood friends... the "next generation of Sweet Magnolias".
