A review by bbrassfield
Eventown by Corey Ann Haydu

4.0

Effective tale for young readers of the dangers of sweeping all those hard to manage emotions away. In the case of Naomi and Elodee, and their parents, it's a death in the family that leads them to move to Eventown where everything is on an even keel. Everything is perfect, if severely limited in terms of flavor and choice. The library is filled with blank volumes, the residents having told their stories at the Welcoming Center soon after arriving. This has the effect of rendering those memories inaccesable, or maybe they just cease to exist.
