A Song Called Home by Sara Zarr
5.0
If Lou's mother's life was a book, it would be a romance novel, and if that were the case, this book would pick up just as Lou's mom got her Happily Ever After. Lou's mom has a new husband and Lou has a new stepfather, a new school, and a new house. She's been shaped by the years her alcoholic father was around and she's being shaped by the fact that he's not around anymore.
More so with most books, I felt every bit of Lou's feelings. Where they came from, where they lived in her, how long they lingered. This is a long book for a middle grade book, and one I I think adults shouldn't pass by.
