My all-time favorite book... I've read it three times, and it never gets old. By describing three generations of women, from Buggy to Vivi to Sidda, Wells creates a picture of the complicated mother-daughter dynamic, giving background glimpses to help us understand what makes them tick. Vivi especially is a character of depth - she makes me love her one minute and hate her the next, a pattern that adds to her authenticity. And oh, the Ya-Ya's. This is a group of girls who defy the common definition of "family," proving that the bond between friends can be the most powerful thing in the world.

Love this book!
Girl Power Southern Style!!

This is a great book, enjoyed it more than the movie.
Over the years I've read many, many great books. Great as they may have been, only a very small pool of them can I vividly remember or even recommend. This book will be one that will stick with me. The storytelling was magical and transporting. My eldest daughter was reading this at the same time I was and we both loved it.
I didn't read, but I assume it is like the movie.
