The English Journal's story about Cold Sassy Tree sums it up best: “Boy, howdy, Ma’am, you have sent us a fine book!” It’s so fine a book that I can't choose what I like most -- the well-cut characters, the historical rendering of life's simplicity at the turn of the twentieth century, the sometimes-funny and sometimes-poignant stories of familial love and conflict or the depiction of a small community where, like in most small towns, your business is everybody else’s business, too. I enjoyed the heck out of this book. It was real and just plain fun.
