A review by seebs
Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin

4.0

Okay so I started this book very confused as the first chapter is told by an unlikely character (not saying as I don't want to spoil.) As the book moves into the second chapter / Part I I found myself hurting for the main character... and then getting really, really annoyed at the belligerent teen. Really, her circumstances were bad but good golly Miss Molly get a grip! As the book moved into Part II I realized I really did like her & the story.

This is a lighthearted tale (odd I know for the subject matter) & it is done with great thought & care. It was sad when it ended but delightful to think about the untold stories to come.

Wonder what a philosopher would say about what Zevin proposes?

I would recommend this to 7th and up.
