The Ya-Ya friendship, the self-expression and Vivi/Siddha relationship were just a delight and moved me to tears. The vignetts around the the Ya-Ya's and petite Ya-Ya's described and the delight and effort they all put into living was wonderful. (  )1  tandah | Oct 16, 2009 | I had some trouble getting into it, as my first reaction was that I didn't like any of the characters. But it grabbed me about a third of the way through, and I'm impressed by the author's portrayal of the complicated relationships between mothers and daughters. The character of Vivi Walker is complex, and while I don't like the heavy drinking that is so much a part of the lives of these characters, the author makes it clear that Vivi's problems stem from multiple sources. It reminds me that the ways in which parents fall short is often just a reflection of the ways in which their parents failed them. I also thought the denoument was a little too perfect, given the amount of angst that preceded it. ejj1955 | Oct 8, 2009 | Amazing novel. You keep wanting more (  ) Bookwormliss | Sep 16, 2009 | I absolutely loved this book! It made me laugh out loud, lots. I also cried. I think every woman would love to have a group of friends like this. ( ) Suuze | Aug 12, 2009 |  no reviews | add a review

Some favorite scenes, anecdotes, and the rich bayou background are not included on this abridged audiocassette, but fans of this special sisterhood will nonetheless enjoy listening to the author's take on the world of Thornton, Louisiana, and the female friendships she created there. (Running time: 3 hours, 2 cassettes) --Anne Depue

I love the way Rebecca Wells writes. She weaves vividly colorful images of locales and characters' personalities, and gives a depth to each character that was absent in the film version. The story is a deliciously sentimental tale of friendship, family, and making amends out of long-held grudges and resentments.
