Title: One of the best books I've read
Review: I LOVED this book. I work with foster children and am in the mental health field by profession. I read this book due to the nature of its plot (foster homes/children etc). Astrid the central character has many of the same qualities as the children I work with (depression, suicide attempts, love/hate stance towards parent). I could not put this book down. I read it about a month ago and every single character rings clear as a bell in my memory. You will never forget this book. The characters are so deep and carefully constructed. I've read other souther literature: Ya Ya Sisterhood, Redkneck way of Knowledge, Crazy Ladies, and more. But this is by far the best book. New Orleander is a lovely book and you will regret the time you will close the book when you get to the last page. You will mourn the death of a friend. READ THIS BOOK!
