“The books are a testament to the power of community and how love—whether romantic or between family members or friends—can heal all wounds. Strong, capable women are the core of the story, learning to love and speak up for themselves.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Readers looking for uplifting, old-fashioned, small-town holiday celebrations should start planning out their route to Henry Adams, KS… The blend of Fannie Flagg charm and the kindness of Jan Karon’s Mitford novels will draw new fans to Jenkins’s series.” —Library Journal
“If you haven’t yet gotten your hands on [this] author’s work, you should do so immediately.” —Shondaland
“This storytelling is uplifting and engaging and proves it really does take a village.” —Al Roker on Beverly Jenkins’s Blessings series
