Rose O. reviewed on
Ellen Foster, by Kaye Gibbons pull you into the story with her opening sentence,
" When I was little I would think of ways to kill my daddy. I would figure out this or that way and run it down through my head until it got easy."
Ellen Foster is one of my favorite books, it is compelling, the voice of the narrator of a child who has suffered abuse, it is funny, and the language so simple and heartfelt that you can not help but to fall in love with the character and the story. It is a must read.
