A very sweet book

there are some really lovely lines and moments in this quiet, thoughtful kids book, but overall i think fawcett's ambitions are bigger than her abilities. it seems to be aiming at a sort of polly horvath sort of story, but it doesn't quite work. a of coming-of-age historical novel set in 70s appalachia, which i feel a bit of a personal connection to (not my history, but that of family members) and my relatives were definitely "mountain people" that these characters totally looked down on, so maybe i'm taking it personally.

this is mediocre. only books that are great or terrible get shelved on lots of shelves. I really don't have much to say about this one.

A pretty book that felt almost dreamy, but nothing happened.
