ktvermilyea's review against another edition
5.0
WHAT a book. This left me thinking and thinking...and I just cannot accept the ending.
I have hope.
The first part of this story follows a delicious road trip with Bailey Martin as she drives up and down the east coast. Bailey eats and adventures and one can visualize this experience--gorgeous and scrumptious, if not plainly escaping something of which we are not aware.
The story gets layered and we see how complicated a creature Bailey is--with wonderfully supportive and supporting characters throughout.
I want to reread the book in order to catch what I missed. I was busy reading each delicious detail and I am certain I missed clues and suggestions.
Bailey is a lovely character, which makes this an easy book to read and get into quickly.
I can't wait to read more by Ellen Malphrus. I know and love her, and this is a gorgeous novel, set in my home. The scenery is painted in the most beautiful way--by only one who loves the Lowcountry could.
