Friday Beginnings

"Mary Ann smooths over his lap marks, and it's their quiet together that makes me feel safe. You hope for such assurance around your own parents, though mostly I remember my father's light jab, my mother's retaliations, words that hook in and stay."http://rosecityreader.blogspot.com

This sounds good. I like the imagery the author produces. I'd definitely give this one a try. I hope you're enjoying it!
"Word that hook in and stay" -- If parents only realized how powerful their words are! This sounds like a good book.
Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment about REMIX.

Very nice imagery in the beginning!

I've been away from the meme for a while, but trying to get back in the swing of things. Here's my Friday Post.
I did cheat a little with this one and checked out the full premise. It sounds like a very powerful storyline and has met with some very positive reviews and ratings.

It is always so much easier as a child or young adult, to relate to and seek advice from, adults who are not your parents. Life always seems so much better in someone else's back yard!

Thanks for sharing and I look forward to reading your own views about this book,

Yvonne
