REVIEW: ALL FRUITS RIPE by Anne Kemp

MY REVIEW:

I am going to be part of a blog tour for RUM PUNCH REGRETS by Anne Kemp via Chick Lit Plus, so when I was doing a little research and planning I discovered that there was a novella that actually starts the Abby George Series and Rum Punch Regrets was not the first book.  I am pretty particular about things, so I knew that I needed to read this novella to be completely prepared for the tour. 

I am happy to say that this novella really got me excited about the tour.  If gives you a bit more detail to the story and the characters background.  Chapter One of Rum Punch Regrets was also included in the novella and I pleased to say that there was a bit of repeat from the novella to novel but not complete redundancy.  I have to say that I cannot wait to get this book and to get going.  It seems like it is going to be a great summer read.  I find the characters interesting and the story line fun.  I will let you know if Rum Punch Regrets is all I hope it to be come August when the tour runs.

Will she go?
