Overview

The delicious sequel to the New York Times bestseller Peaches

After a magical summer living on a peach orchard, Murphy, Leeda, and Birdie confront a series of breakups, makeups, and takeoffs. They may have to leave one another, along with the orchard that brought them together. But despite their heartbreak, this year’s bittersweet endings could lead to the sweetest of new beginnings.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly

Favorite series and characters come to the fore this season. The three one-of-a-kind Georgia girls who converged at Darlington Orchard during picking season in Peaches (which PW's starred review called "a novel about broken hearts, broken spirits, and the healing power of friendship") return for The Secrets of Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson, which picks up in the autumn, just where the first book left off. Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

Children's Literature

Readers may have met Murphy, Ledda, and Birdie in Peaches, the first book of this series, and if so, already know of the family connections and the overriding importance of the peach orchard. For the audience who is just now making the acquaintance of the trio, Ledda and Birdie are cousins; Murphy is the renegade, not only of the three friends, but of the entire small Georgia town. In this sequel, each of the girls is facing complex family relationships and the angst of leaving home, or not, after high school graduation. With ineffective mothers and practically invisible fathers, the trio provides strength, support, and physical presence for each other when it is most needed. Rex and Enrico make their appearances again with Murphy and Birdie torn between romance and accepting adult roles otherwise expected of them. First time sexual encounters for one, and yet another intimate encounter for the other creates scenes that are appropriate for mature audiences only. This is a novel of peers advising peers, with no adult who can be trusted for support or stabilization. Characterization is the strong point, as each chapter changes voice. There are also some delightful nature descriptions, with the peach orchard serving as a presence in its own right. Although many aspects of the novel effectively portray Southern culture, there are come inaccurate biblical allusions which could benefit from another swing through the Bible Belt, or not be used at all.

VOYA

Murphy, Leeda, and Birdie are beginning their senior year after their summer at Georgia's Darlington Peach Orchard in this Peaches (HarperCollins, 2005/VOYA February 2006) sequel. Murphy is assuming NYU acceptance, but her shocking deferred admittance makes her realize that her bad-girl behaviors are hindering her new goals. Her boyfriend wants marriage and to remain in town, but Murphy is equally adamant about leaving. Leeda desires a better relationship with her neglectful mother, especially after hearing hints of a serious illness. She grudgingly serves as Pecan Queen, but her mother skips the all-important parade. Discovering that the illness is only a ruse for acquiescence, Leeda is emotionally crushed and hospitalized. Sheltered Birdie, whose family owns Darlington, simply wants life unchanged. Although trying to assist Murphy and Leeda while needing their friendship herself is upsetting, Birdie's main concern is boyfriend Enrico, with whom she has sex. Afterward Birdie longs to revert to her problem-free childhood-but becoming a woman with a loving partner is equally attractive, causing additional angst. As with the first book, this novel features lush, intricate, and sensual descriptions and lyrical scenes, but without its predecessor's wordiness and repetition. Chapters usually center on one character and feature her perspective regarding the others, providing multiple views and interpretations of the complicated problems encountered. These likeable, strong girls face realistic situations but retain uniqueness by making thoughtful, often painful decisions based on their needs. Mature females wishing a refreshing alternative to tidy, happy endings will enjoy this engagingnovel.

KLIATT

To quote the review of the hardcover in KLIATT, January 2007: Birdie, Murphy, and Leeda are back in this sequel to Anderson's debut novel, Peaches. Picking up where Peaches ends, readers follow these three friends as they deal with life, love, and family dynamics. Even though the orchard is dormant in its growing cycle, it remains a strong character in the story, and the girls are each emotionally tied to it in some way. Murphy is torn between wanting to get out of their small town but also feeling comforted by the love and friendship discovered there; Leeda continues to struggle with her difficult relationship with her mother; and Birdie feels emotionally and physically tied to the orchard while experiencing bubbling desires to know and understand life beyond it. Anderson has drawn characters who are strong but also vulnerable as they learn to battle the demons within themselves and to accept the flawed natures of those around them. Add this book to your Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants read-alike lists and to your options for girl-focused and mother-daughter book discussion groups. Reviewer: Stephanie Squicciarini

School Library Journal

Gr 9 Up
In this sequel to Peaches (HarperCollins, 2005), Murphy, Birdie, and Leeda say good-bye to a summer on Birdie's family's peach orchard as the girls begin their senior year. Each teen faces a different set of growing pains. Birdie pines for her boyfriend, who's gone back to Mexico for school, and she worries that her family's housekeeper, who grew up in his town, will return home. Murphy, who dreams of moving to New York and has applied to NYU, is unable to tell her boyfriend that she loves him, although it's all he wants from her; what she wants is for him to agree to go to New York with her. Leeda's mother neglects her in favor of her sister; as their relationship grows more and more distant, the teen shuts out the rest of the world, including her friends. The novel is well paced and resolves the interwoven story lines tidily but authentically. This appealing book is as light as Cecily von Ziegesar's "Gossip Girl" series (Little, Brown), but without the glitz and snarky tone. Murphy and Birdie mature just enough to make the story optimistic but not fantastical, and Leeda's lack of growth makes her all the more believable. There are a few unclear references to the previous book, but in general the story stands on its own. A good choice for fans of Ann Brashares's "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" books (Delacorte) and similar series.

Read an Excerpt

The Secrets of Peaches

Chapter One

If there was one thing Murphy McGowen had always known, it was that she would someday make it out of Bridgewater, Georgia. Among her scattered musical taste, her scattered curly hair, and her scattered past (which included clothes scattered at the edge of the lake and parts of Bob's Big Boy scattered over Route 1), planning her exit had been the one constant.That, and her long-held desire to streak MayorWise's front lawn. She just hadn't gotten to it yet.

If Murphy hadn't had a tattoo of Ringo Starr on her back already, she would have had these words from Bruce Springsteen's "Thunder Road" tattooed there: Two lanes can take us anywhere.

Songs of escape were written through Murphy's DNA like eye color (hers were cat green), and she had the words down exactly. The song went like this: going to NYU, majoring in music, and spending the rest of her life feeling like she'd finally landed in the right place. As fickle as Murphy could be about many things, there was never a variation on this refrain.

"Murphy, can we go?" Leeda asked. "The dogs look hungry." She nodded at Birdie's papillons, Honey Babe and Majestic, who sat on the wet bus-stop sidewalk staring at the three of them, their butterfly ears cocked expectantly. The tiny dogs appeared to be smiling—they always did when Birdie was around and when they were together. They were so attached to each other Murphy called them John and Yoko, even though they looked more like a cross between Bambi and the Muppets.

"I just fed them before we left." Birdie looked over her shoulder at Leeda, who was tugging Birdie's auburnhair into a braid. Leeda yanked it. "Oh, I mean, um, no, I didn't. They're starving." She rolled her eyes at the dogs,who smiled back.

"You're the worst liar, Birdie." Leeda dropped Birdie's braid and threw her head back despondently. She stared up through the plastic ceiling of the shelter area where they sat.The rain sent splat patterns across its surface. "I have so much studying to do."

"A week into school and you're already obsessing," Murphy observed.

"I guess." Leeda shrugged. She was on what Murphy considered a perfectionist recovery program. Leeda went for first place by default, always.

"Five more minutes. One will come. Pretty please?" Murphy looked at Leeda, who was still staring at the rain-splattered ceiling. Next she turned to Birdie and poked her on the arm, which was lying across her own warmly. Birdie was a furnace. "Please?"

"She just wants to see one more," Birdie said, fluttering her eyelashes at Leeda. "Then we can go." The thing about Birdie was she was a born ambassador. It was probably from all the time she'd spent hovering in the no-fly zone between her parents.

Murphy studied them both. Leeda looked straight out of Martha's Vineyard—all perfect cheekbones and alabaster skin with a smattering of sun-induced freckles and clothes that were totally season appropriate. Even loose and sloppy like she was today, she looked like the kind of loose and sloppy you saw in People magazine when they caught a celebrity all tired and mussed up at the airport. Birdie, on the other hand, was curved nd rosy and Renoir soft. She looked like the milk-fed farm girl that she was.

The two were second cousins but nothing alike. Leeda was straight up and down, and Birdie was as gentle and easy as the rain. Leeda had grown up wearing mostly white and exceeding everyone as the glossiest, the smilingest, and the most southern of the southern belles in Bridgewater. Birdie had grown up with dirt under her fingernails, homeschooled on the orchard, her feet planted in the earth.

Before Judge Miller Abbott sentenced Murphy to time on the orchard picking peaches that summer, Murphy had pegged Leeda for uptight and Birdie for weak. But their time together— picking peaches, sweating in the dorms at night, cooling off in the lake—had been like living the fable of her life. The lesson being that when you think you know more than you do, you end up looking like an idiot.

Murphy, mind restless, tapped her feet on the sidewalk and stared at the initials carved into the Plexiglas walls. She poked at the pack of cigarettes in her pocket, although she'd given up smoking because her boyfriend, Rex, kept telling her it was a stupid habit. She wore faded jeans that clung to her curves and a vine green T-shirt that matched her eyes. Murphy didn't have to dress sexy to look sexy. She could wear a nun's habit and still look like she needed to cover up. Murphy and Birdie let their heads rest back against the wall like Leeda's.

"It feels like somebody pushed the pause button," Birdie said. She was right. It seemed like the gray Georgia fall would never end—it would be just one long rainy afternoon after another, on into the apocalypse.

They sat in silence. "What day's graduation?" Murphy asked, her voice skating across the crackling of the raindrops. "May fifteenth? I wonder if it's too early to book my bus ticket."

"Don't say that!" Birdie said.

Murphy felt the restlessness bubble up the way it always did when she thought of all the days that stood in her way. "Do you think once I leave, if I look back, I'll turn into a pillar of salt?"

Leeda rolled her eyes. "The drama."Murphy grinned at her.

She knew the reference was backward. In the story, Saul's wife turned into a pillar of salt because she looked back over her shoulder at the reckless and rotten city behind her. But Murphy was the one who'd always been too loud, too reckless, too rotten for Bridgewater. The number of times she'd been whispered about, caught, and raked across the coals (usually because she asked for it) were too many to count. Because she couldn't keep quiet, because she couldn't contain . . .

Peachy Book

Jodi Lynn Anderson portrays the story of three teenagers living in the small town of Bridgewater, Georgia in her novel The Secrets of Peaches. As thrre girls finally reach their senior year, they have to face the trouble that college applications, love, and family bring. Through all this, they find they can count on their friendship to survive these difficulties. Murphy is the confident bad girl who can¿t wait to leave the small town that has been holding her back all her life. As she decides to go to NYU for college, she faces one problem¿her boyfriend Rex will not come with her to New York. She is torn between following her dreams of the big life and finding true love at home. Birdie, your typical home-schooled farm girl, is infatuated with her boyfriend Enrico who lives in Mexico. As she becomes confused on whether or not to take her relationship to the next level with Enrico, Birdie also finds that her nanny and friend of 17 years is becoming more and more estranged. What she thinks are the signs of a near retirement turn out to be something Birdie would have never expected. Leeda is the image of perfection¿the beautiful girl next door with the best grades and the nicest clothes. Her problem is that her mother neglects her which consequently makes Leeda a bit insecure and kind of a push over. As her mother disappoints her one more time, Leeda begins to stand up to anyone who dares get in her way. As she isolates herself from her friends and family, she has to decide what course in life she¿ll take, whether she¿ll choose to remain close to her friends or start her own life in California. Anderson does a great job portraying the ups and downs of friendship. The relationship they all have seems real and allows one to relate to their fights and their laughs. ¿Leeda felt fierce protectiveness when she thought of Murphy being alone in New York.¿ This shows the strong friendship that existed between them. The part that irritated me slightly was the fact that Murphy¿s character was too perfect. She didn¿t have the sort of ¿perfection¿ Leeda embodied, but more of an everything-goes-my-way perfection. True, she did live in a trailer park but she also ¿looked sexy without having to dress sexy.¿ She was always getting into trouble, always going out with guys, yet she still found the time to have the perfect GPA and the perfect SAT scores. ¿For all she knew, she would be valedictorian.¿ I find it hard to believe that one could manage to have the perfect academic records while having the crazy social life that she had. The small town life has never seemed as appealing as it did in this book. The scandals and traditions that only exist in small towns call to one¿s senses. One can feel the closeness and the separation that these characters have among one another. Jody Lynn Anderson makes one want to drive to Bridgewater, Georgia and pick one of the ripe peaches that first brought these girls together.

THE SECRETS OF PEACHES takes place where it's prequel, PEACHES, left off.

Birdie, Murphy, and Leeda are all beginning their senior year of high school and each facing their own struggles. Birdie is dealing with a long-distance relationship, now that Enrico has gone back to Mexico, as well as worrying about her housekeeper. Murphy is trying to deal with actually having a serious boyfriend and worrying about where she's going to college. Leeda is dealing with a mother who pays more attention to her older sister instead of her and starts becoming more and more distant from everyone, friends included.

The friends and family drama are what keep this novel moving. I truly think that the friendship of Leeda, Birdie, and Murphy is one of the strongest and most realistic one you'll find in YA fiction. If you enjoyed PEACHES, I'm sure you'll like this one, although it does share the one problem from the previous book - it drags horribly in the middle.

Other than that, I definitely recommend it, especially if you enjoyed the first title.

An unlikely trio fighting the odds during a crucial point in their lives.

I believe this is a very well written book. It is well thought out and planned with twists you would never expect. This book starts a bit confusingly at a bus stop, but the only one going anywhere is a rock, bound for New York, only if it is lucky enough to not be kicked out of its resting place on the bus steps. In this you learn of a young woman¿s dream to get away from the small town she calls home. This young woman¿s name is Murphy McGowan, and active young woman with really no friends but two. These friends, Leeda Cawley-Smith and Birdie Darlington, have nothing and yet everything in common with Murphy. In this final year at high school, the public high school for Murphy and Leeda and homeschooling for Birdie, this trio will find what it means to make sacrifices for loved ones and to choose what is right even if it isn¿t easy. These choices range from where to go to college, what to do with their lives, and, for Leeda, if she really needs her mother¿s attention which she has been craving for since birth. As these problems continue to bundle up with many others, the girls begin to realize life isn¿t exactly what they thought was. How do they choose to spend their lives? It is your choice to find out, but as for me I am glad I took the time to read this book. I really liked that this book was continuously on the move, it didn¿t let you stay in one spot for long. The book was also very heart-touching as you realize the effects of these women¿s choices. It is also easy for one to relate to this book from many different aspects of life. Whether you are old, remembering what you were like your senior year, or just entering the four years of high school yourself. Although this book was very good it is sometimes hard for one to understand it because at almost every new chapter the narrator is also skipping from girl to girl so you can get the full feeling of each one¿s emotions and actions. This book is the second in the series, the first labels Peaches. I believe it is important for one to read the first book before the second to fully understand everything you read. Also this book reminds me of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants because both are about girls using their friendships to survive the hardships they face. If you enjoyed other books like The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series I believe you will also like this book.

Three Girls. Two Semesters. One Not-So-Peachy Senior Year.

Under the heat of the Georgia sun, three very different girls bonded together over ripe peaches, wild dreams, and bittersweet memories. But that was last summer now Leeda, Murphy, and Birdie are all starting their senior year of high school in the little town of Bridgewater, Georgia. When Leeda is nominated to be the Pecan Queen, Leeda¿s colder-than-ice mother showers her with attention and affection. The question in Leeda¿s head is: will her mom¿s attitude towards her last? Meanwhile, Murphy is battling over following her dream to attend college in new York City, or following her heart across town and into her boyfriend Rex¿s loving arms for the rest of her life. Birdie is the only one of the three who wants their lives to stay exactly the same and never have senior year end. Will Birdie get her wish, or are these girls going to make decisions that will change their life forever? Overall, The Secrets of Peaches was a very enjoyable book to read. The plot included many situations that I could relate to and picture in my head. There was never a slow part in the book that made it drag on. I liked that many problems sprouted up that were related to each girls¿ main problem. It kept me on my toes trying to figure out all of the answers. Some parts were a little confusing because I couldn¿t decipher which character was talking about which problem. Mainly, the book had more good qualities than bad, and it is definitely worth reading. Even though The Secrets of Peaches is the second installment in the series Peaches, you wouldn¿t necessarily need to read Peaches, the first book. Jodi Lynn Anderson does a good job giving an overview of the first book¿s storyline at the beginning of The Secrets of Peaches. I would recommend this book to anyone who read the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series by Ann Brashares and liked it, because they are both very similar and the girls go through like situations. They also have equal amounts of teen romance, witty banter, and girly seriousness. The Secrets of Peaches is definitely a good book to pick up and read, because once you pick it up you won¿t be able to put it down.
