Informative book regarding growing older and coping with life.

This is the first book I have read by Dorothea Benton Frank. I enjoyed her writing style – very realistic dialogue, good descriptions. I can’t say I particularly enjoyed the story though. It was very predictable. Just a tad of a mystery but not enough to categorize this book as mystery.

It is a story of strong female friendships, which I did enjoy. I loved Miss Trudie, Suzanne’s grandmother. The description of Southern life was humorous and delightful. Carrie was probably my least favorite of the protagonists as she was openly looking for a “meal ticket”. Good beach read as it is very light. No thinking required.
