Fun summer vacation read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
With an invitation to a class ruinion sitting on my desk, and recently running into some of my husband's high school classmates, and being familiar with the geographical settings of the book...I had a lot of fun reading HOPE IN A JAR just for the fun of it. It was what I expected. Sure, a girls night out with friends would have been fun,too, but since I was home, I was glad to have this book to read, and I enjoyed it.

I was pleasantly surprised with "Hope in a Jar." Beth Harbison combines love with intrigue with friendship with humor. I wasn't familiar with the author, but she reminds me of the "Jennifer Weiner" genre. Excellent!!
A delightful romp through the past!

This book will be enjoyed by all readers (female, that is), but especially the thirty- and forty-something ones, who will enjoy reminiscing about all things popular during their teen years. You'll love Allie and Olivia. Beth Harbison did a wonderful job of switching back and forth from present to past without causing us to lose track - not an easy thing - and all the while keeping us caught up in the intricate plot. Very well done and lots of fun!
zippy dialogue, fun plot

If you like fast-paced, fun and FUNNY reads, with just enough underlying pathos for substance, buy this book, settle in to your favorite chair by the pool and prepare to ENJOY. Harbison writes with wit and style, and she doesn't let her plots lag. Thoroughly enjoyable and HIGHLY recommended!!!
