From the back of the book: "Strengthened by adversity and blessed with enough intelligence to design a salvation for herself, Ellen Foster still feels ill at ease. But while she holds fast to the shreds of her childhood, she begins to negotiate her way into a larger world. With a singular mix of perspicacity, naivete, and compassion, Ellen draws us into her life and makes us fall in love with her all over again"
The sequel to Ellen Foster, and much in the same vein although a little harder to read in places, as it's written in the first person and Ellen is not always crystal clear to those outside her world. But, how many of us were at 15? --so that gives the story all the more of a genuine feel. Sometimes funny, and definitely an interesting read.

A wonderful looking selection from my favorite BCer who is spoiling me with all these books in the mail - thank you!
I didn't like it as well as Ellen Foster although I still did find it an interesting book - I'm not sure if it was me or Ellen but sometimes her point was a little obtuse.
Taking this to the Mid-South Bookcrossing Christmas party - hope your holidays are happy!
