Big Cherry Holler (Big Stone Gap Saga 2)

Great story- poorly printed
I loved the story and the characters but never read a book with so many print errors. Poor punctuation, wrong words and mistakes. For example one of the main characters is called Jack but was frequently written as Jade! Very annoying to read. I suggest a great author let down by her publisher.

Great story ruined by errors
Big Cherry Holler is a lovely read but it’s hard to enjoy to the full because of an amazing amount of errors. It’s not the cheapest kindle book and I now feel unsure about ordering book no.3 in the saga if it’s going to be in the same poor quality. These errors need correcting, else I feel it will affect sales. Disappointing.

Wonderful book but poor quality kindle version.
Another wonderful read by this author, however the huge amount of spelling and punctuation errors in the kindle version spoilt the enjoyment of this book. Very surprised by this poor quality after many years of kindle reading.

Great story - but proof reading needs a lot of improvement
I loved the story, continuation of the first book and seeing how the characters develop. But there were a lot of errors in the text, spelling mistakes, typos, punctuation etc which you had to keep going back and checking if you had read it right, which was a great shame.

Ruined by typos
It is hard to enjoy reading when your flow is broken by another and another typo. Some serious proof reading required

Big Cherry Holler (en inglés)
Había leído el libro anterior, Big Stone Gap, y me gusto mucho. Quería saber lo que iba a ocurrir despuésa los personajes.Es un cuento que habla de personas ordinarias. Me hizo reír y llorar. Esta escrita con sensibilidady dulzura.

Besser geht's nicht...
der erste teil der big stone gap trilogie war schon spannend, witzig und romantisch zugleich. dieser band aber ist noch viel,viel spannender. man möchte das buch gar nicht mehr aus der hand legen. es verwundert, macht traurig, ist aber trotzdem voller witziger wendungen. und das happy end ist natürlich ehrensache.

4.5 stars!
This is one of those times that I really want to use half stars again. I enjoyed the first book, Big Stone Gap, quite a bit and gave it 4 stars. However, I enjoyed this book more and, to me it is almost (but not quite) in the 5 star category. So, in my heart, this is a 4.5 star book.While Big Stone Gap was a book about a love story, it did wade at least knee-level into the waters of self-acceptance. Big Cherry Holler dives right into that pool. In many ways, it is the story of what comes after "happily ever after," something that I can really appreciate.While there is quite a bit going on in this book, it really centers around Ave Maria and her marriage to Jack Mac. They are 8 years in, a time when many marriages struggle. Now, add to that the fact that they are dealing with the death of their son (this comes up in the first chapter, so I'm not considering it a spoiler!) a few years prior. That is a huge mine field for couples and many marriages do not survive such a tragedy. Then, to top it off, Ave Maria is still dealing with the "self work" she started in Big Stone Gap.I love Ave Maria more in this book than I did in the first--even though I wanted to shake her several times during this book. But she's human and just the sort of person I'd want as a friend--and I'd want to have her friends, as she has the most entertaining social circle around.I will say it was stressful to read about the issues in her marriage, but when is that not stressful? I do wish that Trigiani had delved a bit more into Jack Mac's side of things--after all, it takes 2 to tango and it almost seemed like Ave Maria was doing a solo out there. But, this book is ultimately about Ave Maria so that isn't bothering me as much as it might in another book.I also wish that Trigiani had either amplified or muted some of the little side stories. They were interesting, but there wasn't enough in there for me to really sink my teeth into. I think if she had either fleshed them out, or got rid of them completely, it would have improved the book.All in all, I loved this book enough to spend surprising little time on the drawbacks. It's a story about real life, and that I can appreciate.
