Summary: Absolutely the best!
Review: Augusta Trobaugh continues to improve with age like a particularly fine vintage wine. Her books get better and better. I am a die-hard fan, no doubt!

Summary: beautiful southern writing BUT confusing
Review: I loved SWAN PLACE by Trobaugh and thought I'd surely enjoy her new book. While the writing is flowing and superb in its detail, it leaves much of the plot amiss for the reader. At least it did for me.First of all there are way too many Jordan references. Jordan is a young girl who lives with her mother and stepfather. Their househelper, Peony has the last name Jordan. Peony's sister is named Pansy Jordan but she has a fantastic dream and changes her name to River Jordan because she feels she needs to go there someday. Follow? Jordan's parents go to Savannah on a trip and she gets to stay with Pansy and AmyLee (her stepfather's mother) which she enjoys. Then Gertie and her beau, Bill, come into the picture and well, the gang heads out of town to help the couple. All through the story, Jordan has 'spells' and her mother administers castor oil on a daily basis. Her illness is never fully explained and is thought of as imagination. Oh it's just so confusing.

Summary: Ms. Trobaugh has done it again!
Review: What a wonderful book!!! Ms. Trobaugh I hope that you read this so you will know how much I have loved & enjoyed all your books. This one is as good as the others and maybe even a little bit better. The south, with all its eccentric characters, is at it's very best & most beautiful in your books. Your characters are precious & I wish that I knew Aunt Rose & her girls personally, but especially River. Please write more like this.
