good so far.
I loved this book. I read the first Shopaholic book and could not put it down. This book was much the same! I did prefer the first book though. I love Becky Bloomwood, she is one of my most favourite fictional characters. Sophie Kinsella has done a great job with this series so far.
A perennial re-read for me--this time because the 9th graders are reading it this fall. Mosher is one of my favorite authors, and this is one of my favorites of his novels. Similar themes as To Kill a Mockingbird. He catches for me the diversity of country life that is just below the surface of things, not just in Vermont where it takes place, but in rural life all over America. This novel--about family and about race and about prejudices of all sorts,and about what is right-- really echos for me.
