Helpful Score: 1


9/15/08 Treads familiar (yet I never tire of it) ground in telling the story of young Jilly kicking drugs, leaving the streets, getting straight, going to high school, then college, and meeting the friends who will become her family of choice in Newford. Then an old friend Donna, from the Home for Wayward Girls and Tyson appears and takes her somewhere else she's happy. Then Jilly's got a decision to make.
If you've read Widdershins and Onion Skin and all the other Newford books you need to read this, too.
