Title: An engaging, pleasurable read
Review: This book was a pleasure to read -- unlike the many 'problem novels' currently featured on young adult lists. Do kids really need to read such bleak tales of divorce, death, and despair? The engaging text takes us along the author's thought path as she considers these books, talks to her children, and remembers what the books of her childhood meant to her evolving into an adult. Don't be put off by the terrible title -- it's nonfiction, slice-of-life at its best. I'd like to hear more from this author.
