Gone Crazy in Alabama by Rita Williams-Garcia

3.0

This ended well, but I did not enjoy this finale to the Gaither sisters' series as much as the other two installments. I didn't get the sense of the current events and the setting as much as I had in the other two books. This surprised me, as I actually felt like the down home setting came across more clearly when it wasn't the actual setting of the book. The integration of the events and the racial tone of the setting felt more forced. I really didn't understand Big Ma's actions, I found the Big Ma/Ma Charles/Miss Trotter relationships confusing, and I didn't like how much responsibility everyone put on Delphine without acknowledging their own wrongdoing when it proved to be too much for her.
