Title: A truly engaging read!
Review: Our book club chose this book as our September 2008 read, especially because Sandy Cline is a local author, and agreed to attend our discussion after we finished the book. What an amazing experience! We were able to really get a feel for Sandy's frame of mind and intentions while writing the book.I really enjoyed this book...it reminds me on several levels of To Kill a Mockingbird, one of my very favorite novels. The young southern protagonist, the racial themes, and the strong family influences are all reminiscent of Harper Lee's classic. Pug is a very memorable character, and her "sisters" all add a vital piece to the story. The plot has a lot of action, several surprising twists, and really pulls you along. I found myself breeezing through this book.Overall, I thought it was a great choice for our book club; it allowed for a very satisfying discussion of the central themes. I would definitely recommend this book.
