Tittle : The Peach KeeperAuthor : Sarah Addison Allen

The Peach Keeper has been sitting on my to-read list for months, but I am glad that I finally read it. It's my first time reading Sarah Addison Allen's book and to be honest, I was quite impressed by her work. When I first glanced at this book, I thought this was going some kind of historical mystery fiction or something like that. But I was wrong.
The story is much sweeter than that.

Willa and Paxton were in the same high school, however they were not really friends. Now, when they are in their thirties, they were connected again by some incidents where a human skeleton popped out of nowhere. Since both of the girls' grannies were chums, they are even more encouraged to solve the mystery. Even though it's the mystery that is advertised, I think this book is more about friendship, love and being yourself.
I have to admit that Allen really knows what she was doing. Her words captive readers' heart within the first minutes of reading this book. I was very amazed and I like how she describes the characters. The Peach Keeper, despite of being a quick and easy read, is a very meaningful story with a good amount of philosophy. Honestly, I expected more mystery from this book, since there was a skeleton involved and I think if it has more mysterious side, the story would be more interesting.
Having said that, The Peach Keeper is a nice and entertaining read. If you are looking for short and sweet story, this book is worth reading. For those of you who loves chick-lit but bored with the cheesy humor, then you should read it too. This book gets 4 rating from me.
Are you a fan of Allen's work?

ReplyDeleteLumayan bagus sih mbak, terutama buat yang pengen bacaan ringan. Kalau untuk pecinta misteri sih agak kurang gregret.
