Book Description

Urban Soul July 1, 2009
Peony Shaw's sister, Caroline, has just died. Looking for comfort during this difficult time, Peony calls upon her daughters, Violet, Lily, Ivy, and Jasmine--the flowers in her life. When they are summoned, none of her daughters hesitates to travel home to North Carolina.

Beyond celebrating the life of their beloved aunt and offering comfort to their grieving mother, however, each woman has her own reason for wanting to come home. From a cheating husband to a criminal investigation, from baby mama drama to custody hearings, and from disrespectful children to a wedding that might not happen, each daughter is running from an issue of her own.

As the Shaw women offer each other strength and sympathy, they learn that sometimes the best medicine of all is just going home, and that peace and happiness can be found in the most unlikely situations.

4.0 out of 5 stars 'I want flowers instead of weeds...', July 19, 2009
This review is from: Peony's Daughters (Urban Soul) (Paperback)
Peony Shaw has four daughters, Violet, Lily, Ivy and Jasmine and they are all summoned home due to the death of their beloved Aunt Caroline. Violet is living with her mom due to her house recently burning down. Lily has an impressive career and lifestyle not to mention a husband she loves and cherishes. Ivy is a big time lawyer battling a death row case while planning a high society wedding. Jasmine, the baby, is living in the projects raising her two daughters by two different men and is a thorn in the family's side because of her lifestyle and preferences.

Peony's Daughters was a very enjoyable read. The scenes were soooo genuine that I felt as if I was watching a movie as each one unfolded. This tale strikes a cord in the realism of the situation, the people, the personalities, the reactions, it is a very genuinely engrossing tale. All of the characters are intriguing as their stories evolved within the few short chapters...I laughed, I became upset, I sympathised as well as empathized with each and every one of them. This is my first Luceila Turnage read, but I have to say it has been one of the most enjoyable ones that I've read in a while. Refreshing, no graphic sexual or violent scenes, no over the top insignificant details, the flow was awesome, each chapter was realistic and the entire read was visualistic. I felt myself actually seeing some of the people as they fought, cried, laughed, shouted, fell on caskets...this is just an altogether great read! Great job Ms. Turnage. I look forward to more of your enchanting tales! 4.25

I suggest you make yourself a cup of tea, sit back and put your feet up and enjoy this book. It is an easy read (I read it in one day). It is full of fun, laughter, and drama. It highlights the importance of families working together and supporting each other.I really enjoyed this book and I am hoping for a part 2!:)
