Love the Ladybug Farm series...maybe even more so the second time around!
I joined our local bookstore's book club at the beginning of the year and volunteered to take a month when a slot came open. Knowing these ladies as I had come to know them, I just knew they would love this series...and they did!
One of the questions I asked the ladies was which main character from A Year on Ladybug Farm did they most resemble? I am Bridget, for I love to cook. Interestingly, among our group, each main character was represented...there were Cici's who love to work outside and are the "handy-woman," and Lindsey's were present, the artistic ones, loving to create and restore (both objects and humans). What a great way to learn more about each other!
This novel relates a year's adventure of three 50+ women who purchase a farm in Virginia, leaving their years in Baltimore, Maryland, behind...they go from being newbies to this community to a valuable part. They go from three living in the farmhouse to six. They simply grow.
Author Donna Ball creates characters that speak to you...a mix of Golden Girls, Designing Women, and Steel Magnolias...you become immersed in their lives and cannot wait to pick up the next in the series that now includes five novels.
Enjoy!
