reviewed on + 201 more book reviews


Mary Alice doesn't really want to go live with Grandma in a rural town, but she hasn't a choice. Grandma is a real character, though, devising ways (not always honest ones) to survive the Great Depression. Mary Alice , you find out, is following in her footsteps, in the ways she finds to counter the school bullies, and find friendship,romance,and a career.

I really enjoyed this short teen novel, and am going to read the prequel as well.
