A review by lucasgarner
Heart of Palm by Laura Lee Smith

5.0

While this book is definitely not in a genre that I usually find myself reading, I was completely captivated and pulled-in to the Bravo family's story line. The story may seem simple at a first glance, but author Smith has really pulled off an impressive feat by creating a small town that seems to be really alive. The characters and setting feel authentic and are fun to read about. The Bravos are a very unpredictable family, and will leave you stunned, laughing, horrified, and just about any other emotion you can imagine. Smith is an amazing writer, and I look forward to reading other books by her in the future.
