Helpful Score: 3
Ramona is a great mother and baker, and the author does a wonderful job of letting the reader feel Ramona's passions in life. Katie, Ramona's step-granddaughter, is a teenager who has had a troubled and hard life thus far, and again, the author helps the reader feel this characters teenage angst while she slowly sees a brighter future. Sophia, stepmom to Katie and daughter of Ramona, is a expectant mother and wife of a soldier who was wounded in Afghanistan. I felt like I was in the room with Sophia as she sat with her husband, struggling with the swift changes that were happening in her life and how she was going to deal with them.
The story is sooooo wonderful. It is a story about life, love, femininity, pets, home, and (even) bread. Every time I opened the book I was drawn into a comfortable place and I just wanted to settle in.
