Sarah Addison Allen (Get this book)Kate has been lingering in a fog throughout the year since her husband died, and it is only when her manipulative mother-in-law threatens to hijack her life that Kate begins to snap to. When her wardrobe-challenged eight-year-old daughter, Devin, discovers an old letter from Kate's great-aunt Eby, the pair go on the lam to Lost Lake, Eby's dilapidated resort camp tucked deep in the south Georgia swamplands. A surefire star of feel-good fiction, Allen always manages to nimbly mask her potent messages of inspiration and romance beneath her trademark touches of mirth and magic, but this endearing tale of surprising second chances may just be her wisest work yet.--Booklist
