Summary: A sensitive portrayal of a teenage girl
Comment: This is one of those books that I loved as a teen and continue to enjoy. It's a very sensitive portrayal of a shy, intellectual teenager who can't figure out how to deal with the death of her older sister. I love horses, which is what first drew me to this book, but it was JoBeth, the main character, who held my attention. Her pain, confusion, and anger are believably drawn, as is the difficulty she feels in expressing these emotions (or any others) to the people around her.
Feeling out of step with the world around you is probably common enough when you are JoBeth's age. (Or mine, come to think of it.) I like the ways in which Ms Calvert allows JoBeth to handle her feelings, and learn to deal with them.
This is a really touching book.
