What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers generally appreciate the book for its beautiful writing, engaging character development, and the exploration of themes such as family, love, and life's decisions. The story, set during the lockdowns of the pandemic, focuses on a mother's recounting of her past to her grown daughters while they work together on their cherry farm. Some readers found the timeline and character behaviors initially confusing and believed more context might have helped. Despite a slow beginning, many found the reflection on life and relationships compelling, though a few felt it lacked the tension they expected. Those unfamiliar with the play "Our Town" might miss some references, but the book's subtlety and emotional depth are widely appreciated.
