Thank you to BookishFirst and Gallery Books for the chance to read this book.
I loved Whistling Past the Graveyard and hoped for the same connection with this latest Susan Crandall book, but it was a bit of a miss for me.
I love the time period, 1950's through the early 1970's, in the southern states of America. Tallulah's home life isn't great. As her parents spiral she does what she can to hold her and her siblings together. A few family secrets are dug up along the way but nothing was really too shocking.
This book wound up being just okay for me. I think I expected too much. Several parts seemed to be rushed through. Other parts drug along. I love Crandall's story telling ability but I just didn't care too much about this particular story.
