Title: After the fire
Product review: In this fifth installment of the series, the ladies are well settled into their new home after their original one burned. As usual there are problems. Hannah and Amelia begin to bicker, Hannah receives an upsetting diary which brings up past sorrows, and Grace is grieving over a death. The ladies go on a cruise, but they return to the same problems after their vacation is over. There are some things to celebrate, such as the birth of a baby and a wedding date being set. In my opinion, the subplots concerning Grace's young friend, Lucy, are a bit awkward and seem out of place, and the one in this book is no exception. I feel that the books are popular because they show that senior citizens can still lead active and useful lives and the characters comprise a warm and intertwined extended family. There is a lack of literature written for and about this age group and these books fill that need.
