Enduring Friendship
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
It is unusual for a friendship to last a life time on a close basis. Susan Kelly is really descriptive of not only people, but of locations. It was a very readable book, that I didn't want to put down.

I just finished this book and can't say enough good things about it. Susan Kelly is an awesome writer, and this story has so many interesting characters and such a great plot that I really couldn't put it down once I started it. I plan to get copies for my two sisters. I can't wait to start The Last of Something.
A Treasure of a Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This story left me both exhilarated and downcast. The first from the incredible storytelling and the characters, the second because I realize how little I know. No one I've read has managed to see feminine relationships with the kind of penetrating sympathy that Susan Kelly does. Nevertheless, they engaged me instantly. I had to know how Frances and Libba could possibly become friends. The dialogue is beyond expert because it is so consistently touching. For the suburban settings I had to use my imagination along with what I've seen since we've lived here in a small southern city. In the Creek Cabin settings, I could see every detail and savor every scent. What was better than all that was the intricate rhythms of the relationships. Not to belabor the point--I loved the book. Of Kelly's three novels,I now place this first in my affections.
You get hooked on the first page!

What a wonderful book that explores women's friendships and the relationship of a mother and her daughters (from the daughters point of views). It touches on many emotions - love, happiness, sadness and realizing that one is in control of one's own destiny. Could not put it down!
