Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson is a must read for all teenage girls. This story is about 3 girls who get put together at a peach orchard for all different reasons: Birdie's family owns the orchard and she has lived there her whole life, Leeda is Birdie's cousin and is sent to the orchard by her family, and Murphy has to work there as punishment for trespassing. The girls are completely different but those differences make their fresh friendship stronger. Together these girls and the peach orchard manage to stay together in the hardest times. After you read this book, you will be wanting more, and luckily Secrets of Peaches and Love & Peaches do just that.

I got Peaches as a Free Friday selection for Nook. I gave it a try, since it was free. After reading it, I am definitely getting the other books in this series. You can read the other reviews for a general synopsis, so I won't bore you and repeat that here. I will just say that I was drawn into the story immediately due to the likable characters, and I stayed interested throughout due to both wonderful character development and the easy flowing writing style. Young women, old women, and everything-in-between women will enjoy this book.

Good and bad at the same time.
I loved this book. You'll get drawn in and never let out. You can read and reread it many times! The characters are so relatable and great! The one bad thing is that it can get boring in the first book for a little while, but overall it is a great book and series!

Not the best book
It was an okay book but the second book was better than the first. I wouldn't waste your time or money on the book.

Peachy Keen-ly Awesome!
I chose this book because my teacher issued a reading requirement for a realistic fiction book. I was immediately drawn in by Jodi Lynn Anderson's creative writing; the story line was excellent. This is a very good choice if you are a tween girl (like me) looking for a good book.

Sa-Weet!!
Cute little book. I usually read mystery, paranormal, etc. So this was a nice fluff read. Birdie, Leeda, and Murphy meet at Birdie's family peach orchard in Georgia summer. They make a group of unlikely friends. Nothing in common, each with their own set of problems. The journey towards their bonding was as sweet as the peaches. At the end of most chapters there is a little tidbit of information that ties in with the characters and surroundings. Quite interesting. So, if you are looking for a cool summer read, pick this up. It was a free Friday pick for me.

Ehh..
I read this book last year & half of the second book. I didn't find them that great. They moved a little too slow for me. Maybe it's just me, though..? I recommened it, but it wasn't as great as I thought it would be.

Not sure.
I liked the book, but it was really confusing. It went from swimming to picking peaches, to drinking. All discombobulated. I'm dissapointed because I waas told it was really good. :(

A bit disappointing
I was so eager to get this book. Everyone had told me how incredible it was, but after I finished it, I felt a little unsatisfied. Anderson's writing is undeniably fresh, but the story unfolded itself tediously. I, personally, felt no connection between any of the characters, and it seemed as if the plot itself was inexistent. Not a bad read, but don't expect it to be anything special.

Amazing Book!
This book started off with a great hook. I was addicted to reading it righ after I read the first chapter. The realism of this book was great. It was emotional and intense throughout the whole story. <BR/> My favorite part was the ending. It showed true friendship. The characters where unique and to see them collide and befriend eachother was intertaning. My favorite character was Murphy. She was very intruing. Jodi Lynn Anderson did a amazing job writing this book and I would reccomend it to anyone who enjoys a delicous read.<BR/> In essence, I will deffidentally be purchasing the second and third book and im sure Jodi will do a incredible job with them to. This book was truly unforgettable and it is on the top of my favorite book list!

Birdie, Leeda, and Murphy are three girls that you need to get to know. Now. <BR/><BR/>Murphy is the troublemaker, Birdie is the shy girl whose dad owns the peach farm all the girls work at, and Leeda can seem like the snobby girl, but deep down is very sweet. These three girls, who don't know each other at all when they first come to work, soon become best friends. They have their boyfriend problems, petty fights, and family problems that they help each other overcome, and that's what pulls them together. <BR/><BR/>This book is definitely for THE SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS fans. All three of the girls are good and bad in their own ways and are loyal to each other. But not so much that it gets boring... <BR/><BR/>Even though it was a little difficult to get into, I ended up loving PEACHES by the time I was done. A great girly-girl book, or even for anyone interested in how friendships form, and how peach-picking can impact a friendship.

Peaches
I thought this book was seriously good. Like other books I've read, I go for the first one to see if it's good to read the second one. I got Peaches only just yesterday, and fell in love with it. It is one of the best books I've read. I think that The secrets of peaches will be just as good. I recommend this book to anyone who loved the sisterhood seris, because this book seris is a lot like them. Also, for those who like love stories with a unique and all so funny twist...

Peaches
This book had a great story line- I liked it for that. The writing was crap though. I really didn't like how it did not go into much character detail or much detail at all. It just kind of went on and on without explaining much about anything. The characters were ok, but deffinetly not my favorite. Again, the story was good, but the writing made this book kind of a waste of time.

Peaches was ok, but I didn't like it that much. I thought that there was just too much going on at one time, but that is just my opinion, it was just too confusing. And the part where they were in the water was just kind of disturbing.

One of the worst books I ever read. Boring in every way. The only reason I finished it was to see if it got better. It didn't. It was just blah
