libscote 's review for:
The Chosen One
by Carol Lynch Williams
MSBA Nominee 2010-2011
This book is definitely for the older end of the MSBA audience. Kyra is part of a polygamous cult and at age 14, is "chosen" to be the seventh wife of her uncle. This disgusts her and her family. Her family, however, seems paralyzed to do anything to change it. Should Kyra stay, because this might be just punishment for her transgressions, or should she go?
