Great Read but one Author had me in hives!

This is a wonderful book..and something every mom and woman can relate to. All the stories were detailed and you can picture the story as if you were watching it in a movie theater...but this one author had a way of writing that can be compared to fingernails on a chalboard. To be fair to her I have never read any of her other stories or books...so maybe she does not write this way habitually...she can't possibly be doing that...because I see she is quite popular..but in this book Elizabth Beveraly's writing style can be compared to the style of a children's writer...ie..the author who wrote the If You give a Mouse a Cookie" series. She repeats herself over and over expressing the exact same thing paragraph after paragraph, uses the same words, to the point I was cringing through the whole story..simply because her writing style was so childlike as the narrator for her characters. Overall the book is an easy beach read...but that last story by the above mentioned author can really grate on your nerves unless you are prepared to read it as if you were reading "If you give a Mouse a Pancake" to your child...because that is the writing style this famous author chose. Hives aside...the stories are very fun, light and sweet...an enjoyable read....the first two stories would make great Lifetime Television movies..and so would the last story if you eliminate the repetitive narrartion style.
