Birdie, Leeda, and Murphy have absolutely nothing in common, save for the fact that they have to spend the summer working in a peach orchard. Leeda, the debutante whose father owns the orchard, is being punished for dating Rex, who's from the wrong end of town. Murphy, the wild child, is being punished for sneaking onto the orchard one night with a guy from who knows where. Birdie, Leeda's slightly chubby cousin, isn't being punished, but her mother thinks the job could be good for her. Although the three girls couldn't be more different, working together every day for months is bound to bring them together -- right? Several "misunderstandings" in the beginning make it seem impossible. But as the summer wears on, the girls come to understand each other better, and they find themselves getting along. This story about unlikely friendship is sweet without being sickly so, and the girls' acceptance of each other and the lessons they learn are far from preachy. The writing and characters present make this book as juicy as the cover, and as delectable.

Peaches was truly a "sweet and delicious read".I found it hard to put it down and i always looked forawrd to what happened next at the Darlington Peach Orchard. It was original,clever, and very enjoying to read. I read The SisterHood of the Traveling Pants and i most deffenetly enjoyed Peaches much more.The bond the girls made in this book was inspirational and unique in every way. I suggest anyone to check the book out for themselves
