I enjoyed this book a lot... I'm passing it along to my best friends. We happen to be a set of three very different georgia peaches ourselves. Very sweet read, cute and refreshing.

This is a sweet and juicy read about three girls and one powerful friendship. Murphy, Leeda, and Birdie are three different girls with three completely different personalities. I think that if the three characters weren't so different, the story wouldn't be as interesting and stirring.
Murphy's the kind of girl who would rather be getting herself into trouble than hanging out at home on the couch. Leeda is absorbed in her boyfriend Rex. She is constantly bragging and raving about him. Birdie is the odd duck of the bunch. She'd rather sit up in her room and look out the window than go to the movies or the pool with her friends.
When summer comes around and Leeda's lying by the pool at her mansion, she discovers that she will be spending the summer with her timid cousin Birdie. When Murphy is lying out under a pine tree with her beau Gavin, she finds out that the summer she'd been waiting for wasn't going to turn out exactly how she'd planned. When the three girls meet, they create an inseparable friendship.
This book is a phenomenal book that I couldn't put down. The only thing I didn't like is how often I found a sexual reference in this book. The sexual references are not extremely mature, but I certainly would not recommend this book to a young child. This book is probably for grades 6 and up.
There is an excellent theme to this story. It is to hold your closest friends closest to your heart and never let go. I loved this book and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a delicious book that makes you want to keep reading it over and over.

I loved peachs! I couldn't put it down till I finished it. It was amazing, I even read through my favorite parts when I'm feeling down. Its an awesome feel-good book. It deals with friendship, guys, and the perfect peach. I loved it so much, I bought the second one. "The Secret Of Peachs" I can't wait to read that one as well.

If you liked the sisterhood of the traveling pants, then you will LOVE this book! The writing styles as well as the characters from both books are very similar. This book appeals mostly to teenage girls, but I would recommend it to any woman. The plot kept me captivated from cover to cover. I was finished before I realized it, and I wanted to read more! Even though the author is not a teen, she wrote this book as if she was one. I could connect with each of these characters, and I felt as if I was in the story with them. That quality made reading this book a very enjoyable experience. The author really captured these girls' spirits.
If I had one quibble about this book it would be that it should be more descriptive. More descriptive of the characters, their appearance, the setting, and so on.
I especially enjoyed how the book began, with Birdie, Leeda, and Murphy all living separate lives but being tied into each other in some way. As the story progressed they all came to meet in a peach orchard owned and run by Birdie and her father Walter. When they start working there over spring break, the three girls are very distant from each other, but as time progresses, and when they come back to work again over the summer they become good friends. They unite to sneak out and help each other make the best out of life. This is the perfect book to read if you are looking for a feel-good story!
