Synopsis

Priscilla Slater goes to her ten-year high school reunion with equal parts dread and eager anticipation. Even though she's a successful owner of a chain of hair salons and no longer has the mousy brown hair, crooked teeth, and discount-store wardrobe, she still feels like the ugly duckling. But when she arrives at the reunion, Priscilla soon realizes that her old classmates aren't exactly as she remembers them. With humor and a just a touch of sassiness, Priscilla finds herself facing her own truth-and she may be surprised at what she discovers.

Goodreads review by Rachel on September 15, 2022

Honestly was not my favorite book, or anywhere close. Most of the characters were in their late 20s, but still acted like they were in high school and used somewhat language nobody uses anymore (such as “pocketbook” for “purse”, or “young’uns” for “children”). It was a very strange combination, and......more

Goodreads review by Have Faith on July 28, 2024

Pure comfort read- Debby Mayne writes Southern Christian fiction with charming and sassy characters, all of which I enjoyed. While the story lacked some depth, I enjoyed Priscilla’s faith and inspiring character - she resembles the patience, forgiveness, and grace I hope to have when I grow up (even......more
