“Miss Eudora packs more into 24 hours in a book than most people can fit into a lifetime. A family reunion and a homecoming serve as a frame for a multitude of stories, some new some told every year, as families do. A young bride is fighting a losing battle trying to separate her husband from his multitudinous family, the husband is fighting losing battles with the town storekeeper, and then there is the car in the tree...settle into her world and be ready to laugh and smile at the absurdities of life. Highly recommended.”
“Abandondo. I lost the battle to read.”
