This book was just suggested via email for inclusion on our list by Carolyn H. who said "I recommend it for your list because I'll recommend it to everyone I know. Sounds like a strong recommendation to me!
It was not what I expected, but it was beautifully done. I loved the truth of the characters. I felt that their reactions were more real than many books I've read this year. Maybe because I relate to the situtation, I connect to the characters more. However, this was beautifully written and I highly recommend it.
