Title: Enjoyable Read
Review: I liked this book. Emma is a memorable character, and all major characters in this book are 3-dimensional. My only problem is with the forced dialects of Emma and Grace(I had a similar problem with Be My Baby). I don't know many Cajun Southerners, but I don't care for the generic terms of affection- cher, chere, cherie etc.,. And trying to read any intelligence out of Grace's baby "tawk" is nearly impossible. I know small children have trouble with certain consonents, but can't that be more subtly inferred with simple, monosyllabic phrases? If not for the language factor, this book is top rate. It is fast paced, witty, and the characters relate to each other in a realistic way. Worth a purchase!
