Valya Karnavalova valentinoxe5d0 — This was definitely not what I expected. Good read nonetheless.

Hugo Silva hugotomassbd45 — ** spoiler alert ** Usually, Lehane's fast-paced prose, ear for color and somewhat shopworn characterizations can combine to drive a decent story. But the whodunit reveal in this one was an eyeroll-generating cop out. Why not just pin the murder on Dee Snyder or Ozzy?

John Habashi _ohn_abashi — Peaches, a fiction by Jodi Lynn Anderson, has quickly become one of my favorite books. A friend gave it to me because her mom gave it to her and she didn’t want to read it. It looked interesting so I decided I would read it, and my friend missed out. The novel starts with a short chapter that gives a little background to unlock the story. These chapters reoccur frequently through the novel and give those “Aha!” moments. Then it moves into the life of Murphy McGowen, a brown haired, green-eyed bombshell who is misunderstood, lost and has infinite trust issues. She breaks into the Darlington Orchard house and steels a bottle of liquor, only to be caught. For punishment, she is sent to work at the orchard picking peaches over Spring break. There she meets Birdie Darlington, a shy farm girl whose father owns the orchard, and Leeda Cawley-Smith, Birdie’s perfect, rich cousin. All three girls work together on the orchard and eventually break down Murphy’s trust wall, Leeda’s obsessive compulsive perfection problem, and Birdie’s insecurities. They help each other through bonding experiences like transforming Birdie into a beautiful woman, Leeda standing up to her mother, and Murphy finally letting her guard down. All three girls come back to work on the orchard over summer. There were many dramatic situations in the novel, like when Murphy stole Leeda’s boyfriend: Rex. Red is and average, (not rich), guy who fixes cars and has the same sarcastic attitude as Murphy. The two girls work through it eventually. Birdie falls in love with a Mexican farm worker, Enrico, over the summer. He and his friends and family work and live at the orchard over the Summer and then return to Mexico when the season is over/ At the end of the novel, Birdie goes on a road trip with Leeda and Murphy to tell Enrico how she really feels. But does he love her too? You’ll have to read and find out! The central conflict in this novel is man vs. himself in that all three teenagers try to find themselves and are unsuccessful until they find each other. All three have a constant struggle being the person everyone else wants them to be and who they really are. Picking the perfect peach represents each girls’ search for happiness. They all came to the orchard ready for something better than what they had. Murphy with her looks, Birdie with her brains, and Leeda with her money. By the end of the summer all three girls can “pick the perfect peach,” and have become parts of each other. Jodi Lynn Anderson has a compelling way of captivating the audience, and there is never a dull moment. The writing is easy to read, flows well, and the descriptions are never overdone. Everything is written to perfection. With each word, Anderson draws you in more. I would relate her style to Stephenie Meyer’s. I found the main theme in the novel to be: be loved for who you really are, not who people want you to be. Each of the girls allowed society to mold them into something they weren’t until they found each other. Once they were friends, their shells came off and their real, beautiful colors showed. I would recommend this book only to girls between to ages of 12 and 35 because the plotline is on that other people couldn’t relate to and wouldn’t enjoy. I loved this book, and only wish it was longer. Luckily for me, there is a sequel!
