What could have happened to this family to make it so dysfunctional?
This story takes you on a roller-coaster ride of emotions, each turn and jerk leaves you feeling that no human can survive such a childhood. The lack of a present mother, a mentally ill father and a strong but emotionally distant grandmother would make any child search for belonging and their own place in the world, but the trip that Tallulah must travel is almost unbearable to the reader. You will feel each emotion in the pit of your stomach and hope that she, and her family, can survive the darkness they must face. Susan Crandall weaves a tale with a few highs and plenty of lows in the tradition of Prince Of Tides. This is a coming of age tale that I will not soon forget!
