Title: Fun beach reading for the summer
Review: Fun. Quick read. Touching. And a little disconcerting.That's how I would describe The Cherry Tree. After only a few pages I was lured into the life of the mysterious firebomber--a character I didn't want to like, but eventually grew to at least comprehend a little better. So, it was disconcerting to me to find myself pulling for the main character in this mystery/family drama that spans two families and many states.I enjoyed the vivid descriptions that the author provided, especially of the flowers and fauna. Carl must be an avid gardener.I found the relationships believable, the characters complex and the read a mini thrill ride. It's not up there with Grisham, but this book was a good read for a day or two by the pool.
