Welcome to Litsy!

Loved this endearing story and its cast of characters. While heartbreaking to see Ellie question why her mother never made an effort to find or know her daughter, Ellie's journey to discover more about her deceased biological parent results in self-discovery and appreciation for all those who support her. Oh and the 80s references were a delightful bonus. @

Well I woke up this morning at 4am (thank you course of steroids!) and instead of seeing who‘s on Twitter in the middle of the night, I decided to read this book!

Middle grade classic in the vein of Judy Blume and Richard Peck. Our main character is told her mom died. Her mom had never made any attempts to be part of her life. Now she‘s gone leaving only a box of 80s cds behind. Funny, smart, touching. Highly recommend.
