This final novel by Belva Plain was bittersweet. She must have known she was nearing the end of her life as she wrote this book as a wrap up to her first (and finest, in my humble opinion) novel, "Evergreen". The book was set in the 1970's and early 80's and was a very easy and quick read involving Iris (daughter of Anna in "Evergreen") and her daughter, Laura. It was about love, and life, and family - all things that Belva Plain was known for in her novels. It wasn't exactly riveting, but still, it's a MUST READ for all of Belva Plain's fans, like myself.
