A touching story
I haven't read the book but after seeing the trailer it looked like it might have a Murder mystery element to it. It's actually a mix of genres from life story, courtroom drama, mystery and Romance.
It looks lovely from the setting and cinematography as most of it is filmed out in the Marsh land. Daisy Edgar-Jones stands out the most from the cast. Playing a girl who becomes a loner and recluse almost shunned by the small local town. She becomes accused of Murder of a young man she was once dating but is there anything to it more than town gossip. A entertaining film although the courtroom side of it is only a small back drop to her life story. Almost a Romance story at the heart of it as well, with a Notebook vibe. Maybe not as deep or clever as it might imply but I definitely enjoyed the story.

Take my hand is a well developed contempoary romance of the accidental sort. The characters are an interesting blend and the secondary characters in the small southern town lend to the setting. This book provided laughs as well as warm fuzzies and perhaps a bit warmer feelings as well. It is part one of three books that three authors worte together each focusing on one of three best friends and their relationships.
