Here are some of the things I love about this book.
The cover.
(and not just because it has a library card and date stamper on it. But that's part of it.)
Maggie's attitude toward her sisters. How it changes and is so very true to real sisters.
The wisdom she develops as the story progresses.
And certainly not least of all. The book trailer. Wow.

(My copy was from the
library. I was lucky. I understand there's a long reserve list now. If
you've read it, do let the rest of us know what you think. If you
haven't read it, get thee to a library or a bookstore asap!)
Here's Maggie's amazing trailer. Enjoy!

I have this book as an ARC and I wasn't sure about reading it, but now I must!!
A very strong narrator voice, Laura. Would love to know what you think!
