This is the first LFY book I've read that was shabbily edited, which was quite disappointing. There was one small oops that I could have swallowed (“a dryer climate”...um, for all of you challenged spellers out there, a dryer is an appliance; “drier” means “less wet”), but the character names was a big issue for me. Sunny's friend Aubrey was referred to once as “...branch of the Westcott family tree”, when it's Sunny who's the Westcott, while her friend is a Lowenstein. Then, Aubrey's sister randomly changed from Lorena to Lenora about a third of the way into the book. That really, really annoyed me, because mentally I'd gotten used to her being Lorena.
Other than all that, though, I loved the story. Sunny was a very likable heroine and the scenery around Pendleton was very well portrayed.
