I had such a wonderful time reading this book. It is a real treat to sink into the world of Emlyn Springs, Nebraska and the characters who live there. The story of the lives of the adult Jones children whose mother disappeared in a tornado many years ago is funny and touching and very well written. Even though the story was over 500 pages I still didn't want it to end. The author did a wonderful job of interweaving the story from the past with the events taking place in the present and the details on Welsh traditions are just fascinating. I can't recommend this book highly enough.
