The beauty of the cover is what drew me in, to know there was some kind of mystery and history behind the cover is what kept me engaged.
Fern is beat down; her marriage is ending, her daughter is going to college in the fall, the house she just bought she didn't get a great look at it and it needs more repairs then she was expecting. It also has a history that she wants to get to know, but everyone she talks to will only give her a piece of. With the feeling that she is constantly upsetting people of the town that she really wants to know and be friendly with and feeling like a let down in her own life this book takes you on a journey that life is about growing, changing, accepting, community and letting go.
I'm rounding up from 3.75, it wasn't a favorite of mine and I felt like there could have been more to the story where parts just seemed recycled from chapter to chapter, also the way it was written sometimes threw me off. It would seem to switch characters POV from line to line.
