Search - Big Stone Gap

This was a cute book. Light and fun reading. I enjoy Ms. Trigiani's books because her characters are wonderful and they really "come to life", nothing terribly exciting happens with the plot but I get attached to the characters and want to hear more about their "lives".

I enjoyed this book so much that I immediately ordered the next. The characterization is done well enough to feel as though the people are real, days after finishing the book, I felt as though I had visited them.

First time reading this author. I enjoyed it and will probably read her other books. The story was fine tuned and left out enough information to keep a series going. Interesting characters and way of life in Big Stone Gap.

I'm in the minority here, the best I can say is that I didn't hate it. I found this to be vapid and the main character somewhat annoying. I finished it wondering what the big deal was and clearly not interested in reading the rest of the series.
