Darren Bryant darren_bryant — I have been hit and miss with Dorothea Benton Frank lately- this one however hit all the right notes! Ever since reading Vixen, it seems so many books I have picked up or want to read are set in the 1920s, or have backstory from the 20s. Which is fine by me - I have always loved the excitement and drama of the roaring 20s. Folly Beach has a storyline in the present day, but every other chapter is part of a play about the Heywards, who worked with Gershwin to turn Heyward's Porgy and Bess into a musical. I have to admit, at first these chapters bothered me - I would just get into what was going on in the main story line and would be interrupted within the book, like a commercial. But as I read on, the more I enjoyed the Heyward's story line just as much. I liked all the characters in this book, especially Cate's love interest John, who reminded me a tiny bit of Mr. Rochester from Jane Eyre. And wow Cate has a terrible start in this book - I was riveted, what else could have gone wrong for her? Apparently everything! The tragedy of it all forced her to become her own person though, and find actual happiness in the end.

Calvin Lee xiudelee201d — My rating for this book wavered between 3 and 4 stars, but in the end I boosted it up to 4. This book about seemingly ordinary people thrust into extraordinary situations pulled me into it right at the beginning. There were moments, though, where the momentum slowed, but isn't life like that? The plot makes the reader stop and think about life, the choices one has made, and the expected and not-so-expected outcomes that shape our experiences and our existence. I loved the last lines (which do not really give away any of Violet's story): "Who'd have ever thought a shunned, husky-voiced, one-armed, big-chinned girl with a hive of bees in her head could live a life so full of miracles? But we all have, when you think of it. I'd love to hear about yours; the big ones, the little ones, and those miracles you haven't even recognized yet. Look, the waitress is putting on another pot of coffee. Come on, your turn."

Kendall Franklin lovedreams702 — I thought this book was wonderful but I had to read it slowly. I don't know why the similarities between Kevin Brockmeier and Chris Adrian haven't struck me before, but this book made me think of The Children's Hospital more than once (though the latter is a more harrowing--and longer--read).

Marco Van marcovdschf769 — What a fun way to get insight into the mind of adolescent and 20-something males. I wish I had read this before I went to college. It would have saved me from some dating nightmares!
