Out of the Easy by Ruta Sepetys
5.0
"Call this place 'The Big Easy,' shoot, ain't nothin' easy about it."
Beautifully written, this is a wonderful story.
Josie 'Jo' Moraine hasn't had an easy life. She is the daughter of a prostitute in 1950's New Orleans. Her mama has fallen in with the wrong man. Josie has lived on her own, above a bookstore, since she was 12 years old. With a solid group of people, she has a makeshift family.. and boy do they go through a lot.
Willie, Cokie, Patrick, Charlie, Sadie, and Jesse.. these are the people who love Josie and help her grow. They stand by her.
I will tell everyone to read this story. Amazing.
