All the while I read this, I kept wondering, "What is wrong with me? I pick up this book and, within pages, I'm crying, no sobbing, again." Loving Jo Knowles since my first NCTE Convention three years ago in Philly when I serendipitiously seated myself at her table for the Middle Level Mosaic, I knew I had to read her latest book, See You at Harry's. From Jumping Off Swings to Pearl, Knowles always takes her readers down a path that they don't see coming. After finishing the last page of See You at Harry's tonight, I glanced through other GoodReads reviews. Turns out I wasn't alone.

If you head down Knowles' path with Fern, you will join the rest of the early readers of this soon-to-be-released gem which will having you laughing, crying, and cheering for Fern and her endearingly broken, but average, yet not-so-average family.
