Beth Webb Hart wrote an enjoyable story in Moon Over Edisto. The characters are all dealing with the effects of divorce, each handling things in their “own style.” I enjoyed the way that the author let us see things through the characters’ eyes…dedicating chapters to various characters, moving the story along its journey. The setting in South Carolina’s low country was described so that readers will be able to “see” just where events are occurring. I really enjoyed Julia and all that she brought to the story…the struggles that she faced in her life and the decisions that she had to make. It is true to life in that we never know from one day to the next just what life is going to present to us. I found myself wanting to get back to this book and felt very connected to the characters.
