Back on Blossom Street

I love this book and I think it is the best one I've ever read by Debbie Macomber. This book is full of so much it is so hard to explain in a short review and even harder to do without giving away too much. In a nutshell though, this book is about friends, not just any friends though, the friends that stick by you when things get rough and don't judge you when you are hard enough on yourself. It is also about being a friend for others. It is easy to get wrapped up in your problems and forget there are other people who care about you and want to help. It is also about sticking up for yourself when you need to, even when you have to stick up to friends and family who mean well but forget what they want is not always what is best for everyone. It is about fitting in where you feel like a lost puzzle piece in the wrong box, it is about forgiving when it seems impossible because anger destroys people from the inside out.

I'm sure there will be other reviews that tell you more about what happens in this book but I'll leave that to the others. I'll just say this book had my complete attention and I loved it. I'll be sure to share it with others.

If I hadn't read the other two Blossom Street books and a couple of her other books I might have liked this one more. But I'm tired of seeing the same women in the same plots with the same solutions.
