After Annie by Anna Quindlen blew me away! WOW! Annie dies all of a sudden and leaves her husband who has no house cleaning or childcare experience at all and works all hours of the day! Their 14-yr.-old girl now has to look after her three young brothers and keep the house clean. As far as cooking goes, she knows how to make toasted cheese sandwiches but little else. Will this family pull together and remember what their mother taught hem and told them, or will it fall apart?
This book is about true life! This is my favorite book so far this year and I highly recommend you read it! If you only read one book this year, make it this one! (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)
