Meet Taylor Greer. Clear-eyed and spirited, she grew up poor in rural Kentucky with two goals: to avoid pregnancy and to get away. She succeeds on both counts when she buys a '55 Volkswagen and heads west. But by the time our plucky if unlikely heroine pulls up on the outskirts of Tucson, Arizona, at an auto repair shop called Jesus Is Lord Used Tires that also happens to be a sanctuary fo Central American refugees, she's "inherited" a three-year-old American Indian girl named Turtle. What follows--as Taylor meets the human condition head-on--is at the heart of this memorable novel about love and friendship, abandonment and belonging, and the discovery of surprising resources in apparently empty places.

Thank you so much biisbsw for the book and the good wishes for my birthday.
I really loved "The Poisonwood Bible", so I'm sure I'll enjoy this one as well. Looking forward to it.

Well it's taken ages to get to reading this book, but it was worth the wait!
A very enjoyable read.
