This is a beautifully written book... A story about family living under some of the most trying conditions, during a difficult era, and still managing to keep their love, values and humor. It's a book that any reader can take something from and apply it to their own life... Gratitude for our plentitude, compassion for those less fortunate, standing in your own values when others would have you compromise them, embracing the simple things in life and, perhaps most importantly, remembering that love, above all else, is what really matters.

Kudos to Gin Phillips for a great first novel. I'll look forward to more from this author and won't hesitate to recommend it to my friends and fellow book lovers.

Two thumbs up.
