10% in and I’m hooked. Red, too young to hold back his curiosity. Frank, old grief stricken grouch who’s crusty self imposed life barrier is not impervious to Red.

From the first page , I’m in. The gumption of young Adie’s story to her granddaughter from the start is engrossing. I’m imagining the girl disobeying her mother and social norms of the times like going to highschool and not wanting to marry and have children already cheated by her 3 chapters in.

Somewhat repetitive however I need that. So far so good.

First page ‘eat meals of hummingbird tongues’ was an unpleasant visual.

In absolute awe of the power of Ms. Owen’s writing.

All time, favorite!!!

Coming together, lots of action, lots of likable characters...perfect for jury duty.

Heart wrenching, achingly horrific, ...

Laugh out loud funny.

Going to be a one day read. Character development has me hooked, can't put it down!

A little annoying with the presidential and movie references. I would think movie buffs and history buffs would enjoy it more. Kind of dragging, midway through the book. I like the main character, hope something happens soon.

Still not hooked but not giving up.

Victoria's voice reminds me of Jeannette Walls' in the Glass Castle. Heart wrenching thinking about her when she's a little girl sabotaging herself in every way but surviving nonetheless and inspiring when she's finding her way working in the flower shop.

Read all of the series. Predictable, lighthearted, and funny. Love the characters.

More action and depth. Enjoying Myron and his best friend and partner, Win's dynamic and dialogue. Reminds me of my favorite part of sports... The smack talk.

Fast paced, lacking some depth.

A friend said it was her favorite book ever. So far, I think my 9 year old son would enjoy the Western' humor, wildlife, weapons more than I am...not putting it onto the Dnf (did not finish) shelf yet. Stay tuned.

Long book.
