Defintiely read it but I'm not sure what I read. Holly Wilson's debut is, in fits and starts, the coming-of-age story of ten-year-old Molly. What age and where it comes to has something to do with dead moms, with the world fair, with trust issues and a festering sibling rivalry and the realization that no one looks out for you in this world but yourself: every girl is an island. As a positive, I was on page 200 before I realized I'd read 200 pages.
