Helpful Score: 2

I enjoyed this book, though not as much as Secret Life of Bees. The characters are engaging, but a little more literal than those in Bees. I also find female characters who leave their "normal" lives to find themselves, or whatever, a bit annoying. The reasons for leaving are never compelling enough, the collateral damage always so predictable. That said, it was a pleasant enough read. I might have liked it more, had I read it first. It makes me wonder if the old saw is really true...most authors really only have one great book in them...
