Customer Reviews

A Great Read!!

People often say that all stories have been told before and that a writer's job is to make a story fresh and new. Jahn-Clough does just that with Country Girl City Girl. From small town life on a farm in Maine to the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple, Phoebe isn't sure what her relationship with Melita is all about. But she is sure that she'll learn more about herself the more time they spend together. A great read that doesn't fall back on easy answers or trite conclusions.
