It had a lot of moving parts, but the author brought them all together quite well, after she gutted me with all the mom-recollections.

It was a beautiful way to show how Max was progressing through his issues and working towards trusting people again. Good and Gone was very good. I found myself totally absorbed in the story, which was equal parts fun and heartbreaking.

Max dealing with his grief (I know you love the grief books!) and believing the tumor had transferred to him. Sounds like he had a great family, too. So glad you enjoyed these!

I like Ready to Fall's cover most, it's creative and eye-catching. The last sibling road trip story I read was Finding Paris by Joy Preble, and it featured two sisters trying to find each other. I might have to try Good and Gone to see if it stacks up! <br /><br />claire @ <a href="http://www.clairefy.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">clairefy</a> Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08103704290284308846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528395365771263864.post-73426215969646151832017-11-24T08:30:41.638-05:002017-11-24T08:30:41.638-05:00It was adorable and had a lot of heart.
