A Year on Ladybug Farm (A Ladybug Farm Novel)

Their husbands were gone, their families were grown, and the future stretched out before them like an unfulfilled promise...

Tired of always dreaming and never doing, Cici, Lindsay, and Bridget make a life-altering decision. Uprooting themselves from their comfortable lives in the suburbs, the three friends buy a run-down mansion, nestled in the picturesque Shenandoah Valley. They christen their new home "Ladybug Farm," hoping that the name will bring them luck.

As the friends take on a home improvement challenge of epic proportions, they encounter disaster after disaster, from renegade sheep and garden thieves to a seemingly ghostly inhabitant. Over the course of a year, overwhelming obstacles make the three women question their decision, but they ultimately learn that sometimes the best things can happen when everything goes wrong...

I REALLY REALLY enjoyed this one, so much so in fact I read it from cover to cover in one sitting! It's one of those books that are fun, fluffy and heartfelt and puts a big 'ol smile on your face. Is the story predictable, yes, but so what, sometimes in life you just want to escape and dream and enjoy a really good book, and this one fits the bill perfectly!
