Title: A Lovely Book and a Great Read
Product review: Lee Smith's The Last Girls is everything I ever want in a book, but so rarely find. I've given this book to friends and neighbors and my book club will read it next month. It is pure perfection.The "girls' of the book are bravehearted, robust women who take one life-altering journey down the Mississippi River when they are in college--but who later take very different journeys. The book retells the story of their wild ride as they come together and fall apart, say goodbye and meet again. It is smart, funny, sassy, poignant and one helluva good read. The Last Girls is the sort of book that you want to press into your mother's hands to say, "I understand you now." It's the book you want to give your daughters so that they might live more fully and completely. It's a book you want your friends to read so that you can retell your own journey together. More than anything, it is a book that makes you want to LIVE. Utterly compelling, like the great Mississippi herself!
