    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!

    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.
    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.
    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!

    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.

    Birdie, Leeda, and Murphy are three girls that you need to get to know. Now.

    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.

    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...

    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...

    Great read

    This is one of those books that makes you feel happy and content while reading it. I have read this book every summer since i got it, because as you read this book, summer almost seems to drip off its pages. The characters are real and believeable, and as you read you can find yourself relating to one, if not all of them. I highly recomend this book to anyone who loves summer, peaches, and books that deal with real life situations as far as relationships go. Each character has her own story and problems to deal with, you get to read from each and everyone of their perspectives and feel their emotions.

    Peachily Delightful :)

    I actaully bought all of the books in this series on sale at Books-a-Million (b/c it was the only bookstore in the area)and was greatly pleased with this book, as well as the rest in the series! I couldn't lay the book down! It was well written and you can associate yourself with all 3 of the girls in some way or another.

    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.

    a must read!

    Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson is a must read book. When I started reading I couldn't stop! It caught my attention from the beginning until the very end. I also liked it because it was about girls similar to my age that I could easily relate to. Birdie's family owns the orchard and has lived there forever, so she works there every summer. Leeda, Birdie's cousin, is shipped to the orchard by her parents, and Murphy has to work there because she was caught sneaking onto the farm. Although they are all completely different, they end up being good friends at the end through some of the hardest times in their lives and through the orchard almost shutting down. With such different personalities you wouldn't expect the girls to get along at all but when they needed each other the most they came to the conclusion that they had to be there for each other. Overall I would recommend this book to any teenage girl because it teaches you about the value of friendship, life, and love.

    This amazing book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    When I started reading Peaches it hooked me. This book is a great book.When I was at school I was looking through the library for a book I picked it up read the first chapter and got hooked. This book remains me of other books I have read.This book was hard to read because of the tiny font and the big words that I couldn't say,but it was a good book and you would love to read all three of her books in the series.There more books like this I read,but I have read so many books I can't remember what they are called.

    Funny

    Peaches is a very funny book about 3 girls who live in Georgia. They get together one summer by working at one of the girl's dad's peach orchard. One is innocent and poor. One is rich. One is juicy and somewhat mean. Good for discussions. BTW, little ones shouldn't (as in, no one under 10) read this. Some parts of ot are a little inappropriate.Have fun reading IT.
