When Abby and her 12-year-old daughter leave their home on Maui and set off across the United States on a road trip to Louisiana, Abby is sure that this trip is about Hannah.
Abby wants Hannah to receive a blessing from Abby's grandmother and the matriarch of the family. This blessing, she is sure, will fill Hannah with confidence as she heads into the challenging years of adolescence.
What Abby doesn't expect, is that in many ways, this trip is about her and her own complicated relationships between the generations of women in her family, including her estranged mother.
The sweet scent of Gardenias permeates this engaging look at the intergenerational journey of women, as it also reminds us of another sweet fragrance—forgiveness.

reconnecting

Reviewed in the United States on 5 July 2013

I truly enjoyed Gardenias for Breakfast. Its a touching story of Abby, a young mother who lives in Maui, Hawaii with her husband and two children. She receives an unexpected call from her brother in Seattle with an opportunity she can't refuse. He told her his family was heading to Europe for the summer and were flying back to Atlanta. He asked if she and her husband would consider driving his brand new SUV to Atlanta all expenses paid, where he would pick it up on his return to the States. She had been dreaming of going to Louisianna to visit her grandmother 'Grand Lady' and here was her chance. Her husband encouraged her to take their daughter to meet her great-grandmother but felt he should stay home in Maui to look after their 'beach gear rental shop'. Robin Jones Gunn has written a beautiful story of reconnection and self discovery.

Not what I expected

Reviewed in the United States on 11 April 2013

I feel like I went into this book expecting more based on the description. My mom and I used to travel together quite a bit when we were both younger, always road trips, so I understood Hannah's boredom at times, as well as Abby's impatience and protectiveness when they made stops. But I felt like, based on the description of the book, that MORE should have happened. Characters should have been fleshed out more, road trip stories should have been written with more detail. And the whole thing about Grand Lady "crushing" Hannah's spirit... Well, not to give huge spoilers, but I felt like it was more of a small misunderstanding rather than a spirit crushing. But all that being said, it was one of the few stories I've read lately where it wasn't completely predictable, and I did enjoy it.

One of Robin Gunn's best!

"Gardenias for Breakfast" is one of Robin Jones Gunn's best! As a middle age woman I related to the importance of female relationships in the family. "Gardenias" reenforces the importance of mending tears in family relations as well as opening our eyes to the fact that our perceptions of situations change at different stages and ages of our life.

Abby, the main character, is on the trip of a lifetime due to her brother's need for a favor. Throughout this trip, Abby becomes aware of how God is working in the life of others and how He changes people. She is made aware of how He is working in her life and protecting her and her family. She realizes how insightful her teenage daughter has become. She also realizes the need for change and a different perspective on situations she may have believed were one way, yet were more likely another.

This book made me rethink my family female relationships and how I "see" them. Maybe I need to look deeper and at a different side.

Robin Jones Gunn's "Sisterchick" series is still my favorite.
