I've never read David Baldacci before so I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading this book. I was delighted I chose it from the book shop 'offers' selection.
It is a wonderful book with people and scenery you can see and feel, even if you have never lived in the mountians of Virginia or West Virginia. The book is about hope in the face of hopeless situations.
Lou and Oz live in New York city with their parents, until an accident kills their father and leaves their mother in a deep coma from which the doctors don't think she will recover from. They have to move from the big city to the country in Virginia to live with their grandmother, whom they have never met. Lou and Oz first resist the new setting but soon learn they better adapt or the struggle will only get harder.
Lou learns that even though she will always be a big sister, she needs to let her brother be his own person. Oz learns he needs to grow up, in the sense that he is the youngest but he's not a baby any more.

I found this book just after the first reader left it. We were waiting to fly back to the US from Glasgow. Scotland was beautiful. I have not read the book yet. I will pass it on to a friend or leave it in a location where another reader should find it.
I was given this book by a woman from Pennsylvania while on a bus to Tivoli, outside of Rome, Itlay, in June 2003. I loved hearing about Bookcrossing. What a great idea! I read and enjoyed the book when we got home to Iowa and will leave in at the next airport we happen to be in.
