About the book:
Just as life is beginning to come together for spunky, purple-haired Mayla Strong, she loses her job and her boyfriend. When she escapes to sunny Florida, her problems only tag along. In this heartwarming sequel to Just As I Am, Mayla learns how to balance friends, family, and faith while living in a messed-up world.
My thoughts:
I've read the first three chapters and as usual the author has pulled me in. Virginia Smith does a better job at that than most authors, btw. Also, this book is in first person POV but it is so well done that it's not at all obvious. I love Mayla. She's one of my favorite characters. This book is a keeper, folks!

Thank you for the nice comments, Michelle. They mean all the more since they're coming from one 'edgy' writer to another!
I would really like to read one of Virginia Smith's books. I was only recently exposed to her and now I am really interested. Not to mention that I absolutely love this cover. I have no idea why, but when I look at that cover I say to myself "I want that life!"
