Big Stone Gap by Adriana Trigiani
4.0

Probably closer to 3.75. Sometimes the right book comes along at just the right time. I truly enjoyed diving head first into the world of Big Stone Gap in the late 1970s and Trigiani's storytelling and narration were full of warmth and affection. I'm about the same age as Ave Maria and much of what she is struggling with are things that I too know all too well. I look forward to reading the other books in the series and I know that the characters and feelings this book evoked will stay with me for a long time to come.
