" This is the third Kaye Gibbons book I have read (in preparation for her appearance in Mpls). It has received the most acclaim, so I probably overanticipated it. The main character is very likeable and I feel for her, but I wasn't totally drawn into her story. I think one Kaye Gibbons book a year would be a good idea. She write short novels that are easy to read and feature a conflict that is easy to see. Not terribly deep, just enjoyable. "
