Publisher's Summary

Much heralded and long awaited, Terry McMillan's tour-de-force novel introduces the Price family - matriarch Viola, her sometimes-husband Cecil, and their four adult kids, each of whom sees life - and one another - through thick and thin, and entirely on their own terms. With her hallmark exuberance and cast of characters so sassy, resilient, and full of life that they breathe, dream, and shout right off the page.

An amazing book, allows you to reflect on choices.

Terry McMillan does it again...this book is short and sweet. It gets to the point without having to wait 5 to 9 more chapters later. This will stay in my collection.
