I loved the characters and their realistic struggles. However, I did find myself frustrated with our main character's seeming inability to ever learn from her mistakes. I appreciated the positive message being delivered without heavy handed or preachy writing. I also really enjoyed the 1930's vibes. I will definitely be reading more from this author!
