Absolutely loved this book! Told from the perspectives of a mother & daughter who couldn’t be more different, we get to know the full cast of small town characters in Spark, Tennessee. You’ll fall in love with Callie Jane; you’ll wonder what the heck is up with her mom Posey who is just simply waiting to be acknowledged for all her beauty and grace. You’ll definitely want to pick this one up!
