The Sweetest Thing

I have had Elizabeth Musser before on my blog as a guest so I was overjoyed when she asked if I wanted to review her new book, The Sweetest Thing. It has just released and I loved the plot so I quickly said yes! Check it out and then I will let you know what I thought of it.

MY REVIEW-I love a book that has southern flair. And this one definitely had it!! I feel like I was back home with all the southern charm in this book! It is set in the depression era and you can tell the author has done her research on this.

This novel is done jumping from one character to another. I don't really care for books done this way but I had no trouble following the storyline in this book. Most of the time it gets difficult trying to keep everything straight and in line. My favorite character was Dobbs. She is very likable and I felt a kinship to her. She is thrust out into a different world than she has been used to. I liked Perri but I didn't fell the same way about her that I did with Mary Dobbs.

Overall this book is one I enjoyed. I will be watching for Elizabeth's next book so long as it has the same flair. This is not a jump-at-you romance or a thrilling novel, but the nice, gentle writing is very nice for a change. This book is available from Amazon at a pretty good price and I suggest you picking it up.

I received a copy if this book for review purposes. I did not receive any monetary compensation. All thoughts are 100% mine.
