Dorothea Benton Frank's "Isle of Palms" delivered great giggles and laughs but also makes you reflect on your own "emotional baggage" and how you need to heave it over the side. Isle of Palms chronicles the life of a woman from childhood and the loss of her young mother, through a bitter upbringing, a date rape with motherhood attached, and clear into adulthood and the revelation that she is finally, independent, successful and happy through all the bitterness of the past.
Dottie Frank has the ability to develop characters you want to know and love, or hate. Her stories teach a life lesson as they take unexpected twists and turns. You'll quickly get caught up in this book, and you will laugh-out-loud at the "love scene in a boat." I've read several of Dottie Frank's books and heartily recommend all of them.

After a slightly corny start, the novel proceeds to draw the reader in to an authentic world with vivid characters. (I have spent part of every summer on this island for the past 20 years.)I couldn't put it down...until about 3/4's of the way through, when it completely fell apart. It became tedious,boring,and predictable, as if the author herself had gotten tired of the project and wanted nothing more than to hasten its end. Certain themes were never resolved; others were rushed to an early,trite conclusion.
It's sad, because she really had something good going for a while.

I'm actually still reading it, but so far a good book along the line of her other beach books.

This is a very reputable seller. The paperback
arrived in wonderful shape. I have already read
it and passed it on to a dear friend to enjoy.

I liked Isle of Palms much better than the first Dorothea Benton Frank book I read. This one was much more of a beachy, fun book than Plantation. The book is about a woman named Anna who has had some very hard ups and downs throughout her life and decides to make some major changes with the help of those she loves the most. She basically takes a major step and buys her own house on the Isle of Palms, the only place she feels totally at home. The characters she meets there and also some people she reconnects with help Anna to make some major life changes and have some fun along the way. It's a really fun beach book to read!
