The Sweet Spot by Amy Poeppel

Deanna (she_reads_truth_365)’s first review of the year

really liked it
The Sweet Spot was a funny laugh out loud story that had major family drama, some romance and even mean girl behavior.

This book had a great cast of characters whose lives intersected with one another throughout the story…In the heart of Greenwich Village, three women form an accidental sorority when a baby—belonging to exactly none of them—lands on their collective doorstep.

Deanna (she_reads_truth_365)’s last review of the year

it was amazing
This is the longest book I have ever read…over a 1000 pages!!! Is it too long? Yes, but it is such a powerful story about the Civil War era. I wasn’t too happy with the ending but there was so much else I did love, setting, character building and all the history I learned. This book will definitely be on my all time favorites list. I am so glad I tackled this door stopper.
