I haven't read this book in years, but I do still like it overall. The writing is good, as is the story.

 This book follows a young tween girl named Dizzy who lives with her dad. Dizzy yearns for a relationship with her mother, Storm, who has been an absentee parent since Dizzy was a baby. When Storm waltzes back into Dizzy's life, Dizzy jumps at the chance to reconnect. The two go on a road trip consisting of communes, hippies, outdoor festivals, dirty fingernails, and fun. Along the journey, Dizzy meets some interesting people. Overall, I feel aloof towards this book. I didn't connect with the characters or story. Cathy Cassidy's other books are better.
