This was a sad book to read. Sisters that have already known tragedy at a young age and are now in high school with seemingly normal lives in late 1960s and torn apart. The younger sister develops a crush on a high school English teacher and becomes a relationship on the sly. After school is done in May, they skip town and start a new life a couple states away. The older sister and their step-mom--who is actually also a sister, there is a lot more going on in this story than any little writeup I do could do justice--a distraught and put up posters and ads for information on her. The younger sister struggles in her new life where she has to stay hidden until she is legal and does find a way to see some people. It ends badly for her and then sister & step mom have to find ways to move on. A sad story overall.
There are 4 WL for this book so I will probably try to mail off soon. I don't need more PBS credits at this point so sort of holding off on mailings right now.
