Rating:  Summary: Going Places Review: What a wonderful debut novel. I could just eat it up with a spoon.
Encore, please! From the delightful coastal underbelly setting to the juxtaposition of characters, gritty and soothing, rebellious and sensitive, flirty and horrified, I was hooked from beginning to end.
Rating:  Summary: Loved It! Loved it! Loved it! Review: WHAT AN absolutely WONDERFUL NOVEL! I loved it from beginning to end - a GREAT read! It's one of my fav's up there with Ellen Foster, Cold Sassy Tree and These is My Words (Those are high on my bookshelf!). This will make a great movie! I've already cast it! WOW Diane, get started and finish the next one! Freaky thing is, you captured many coastal nuances - the feel of the area, the people (no kidding) and beautifully wrapped in a wonderful story. Having grown up there, I see yet again why I left!
Rating:  Summary: lovely prose Review: Wonderful story of two women living in a small fishing town in Oregan. Petie has had more than her share of struggles in her 30-plus years, but she hasn't given up yet. Her friend Rose is finding her own strengths and talents. Together they can do anything. I highly recommend this simple and realistic story of overcoming one's past and facing her future. It is a quick read that you will not easily forget!
