The Turning by Francine Prose

3.0

---

I don't usually read YA books, but this is another one I picked at BEA. (Francine Prose was signing them, and I wanted to say hello since she has written a bunch of pieces for us at Saveur.) It was an enjoyable read, and also one filled with great nostalgia. I was an insanely avid reader as a kid, and just flipping through the suspenseful story, featuring teenaged protagonists, that took me back to being that kid again, happily lugging home a pile of books from the library.
