Staff Book Pick of the Week: Peaches


This week's pick is Peaches: A Novel by Jodi Lynn Anderson (YA ANDERSON).

Murphy McGowen, Birdie Darlington, and Leeda Cawley-Smith could hardly be more different. Murphy firmly marches to the beat of her own drummer, Leeda realizes (again) she will never match up to her sister Danay and is tired of trying, and Birdie is just hoping to hold her family's peach orchard together. But when Murphy is sentenced to community service and Leeda decides peach-picking is preferable to helping plan her sister's wedding, all three girls end up together at the Darlington Peach Orchard for a summer they never expected.
