Critics Review

Wonderfully entertaining

Flagg is a writer of great warmth and wisdom… A richly imagined family saga – Kate Saunders * The Times *
More heart than a shopful of Valentine cards and some absolutely wonderful characters… A warm, funny riff on family and identity – Wendy Holden * Daily Mail *
Wonderfully entertaining * Sainsbury’s Magazine *
Good fun… Southern manners, indomitable broads, smelling salts and rip-roaring adventure * Optima Magazine *
A wonderfully warm and moving read * Daily Mail *
Overwhelmingly heart-warming. [Flagg’s] talent for storytelling radiates from the page, along with her ability to create quirky characters who are both immensely entertaining and reassuringly human. A thoroughly enjoyable tale of girl power – Lilly Cox, 4 stars * Lady *
A light-hearted and humorous read… Fans of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistlestop Café will also surely be delighted by Flagg’s depiction of small-town southern America. – Tannith Cattermole * Nudge *
