A moving story of 5 high school friends set in Montana in 1934. The author faithfully recreates the feel not only of place but the emotional terrain of girls coming of age in that era. At first, it seems this will be a light-hearted book but, as the author peels back the layers behind the lives and friendships, the reader becomes aware that the issues the 5 face are serious. It all makes for compelling and enjoyable reading.
Great book!

This takes place in the ranch country of Montana and is the wise , rueful, witty, and moving story of five teenage girls coming of age in 1934, in the cowtown-turned-colledg-town of Missoula.This book faithfully recreates the bittersweet flavor of an adolescence shaped by small-town customs and the Big Sky Country. The book is a vibrant tragicomedy of manners that will affect readers of all ages and tastes.
