Sylvia | 2 comments I read this book back in 2014/2015 when I was in fourth or fifth grade. The main character was a girl in either elementary or middle school. It was set in the 1960's, in the USA. I think the cover of the book was orange. I think the MC had an older sister who had vinyl records. I think the MC had a guy friend she would ride the bus with? I'm not too sure about some of this stuff lol, my mind is foggy. I remember the MC would watch JFK on the television. I think the book would talk about bunkers and nuclear stuff, idk. If you find the book, I'll be really happy!
