The Priest and The Peaches Review

The Priest and The Peaches Blurb

Take a seven day journey with the five, newly orphaned Peach kids, as they begin their struggle to remain a family while planning their dad's funeral.

They find an ally in the local parish priest, Father Tim Sullivan, who tries his best to guide them through the strange, unchartered and turbulent waters of "grown-up world."
A story that is sad, funny, and inspiring as it shows how the power of family love and faith can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles.

My Review

This is not my typical read and because of that, I could not finish this book. I only read about ¼ of the book before I started to lose interest.
I really hate when I don’t finish a book but if it doesn’t grab my attention within the first few chapters, then I am not going to continue reading it.

Now some of you may be interested in this type of book and that’s great! I’m not saying don’t go and read it, I’m simply saying that I am not a fan of it.

I gave this book 1/5 Butterflies because I did not finish it.
