Moving story about four women who don't really know each other, but all know the title's Annie Freeman. Annie posthumously sends them on a trip to scatter her ashes in spots across the U.S. that were important to her in her life. As they travel they become friends and share their secrets, fears, and love as well as re-examine their life choices. Sometimes the plot was contrived and occasionally the characters were a bit one-dimensional, but this was a great ride! You'll cry and want to buy your own pair of red tennis shoes! My only complaint is that I wish she had chosen fewer women so we could have become more familar with the characters.
