"I remember a quote in some book...something about straight girls maxing out on excitement when they help promote gay guys. That’s pretty much this book, which seems to be targeted directly to them.

" One follows the story of sixteen year old ischiopagus tripus conjoined twins, Grace and Tippi. Written in verse, something Crossan excels at, this was told in a beautiful and compelling way. Grace instantly let's us into her world and I immediat..."

This book sounded fascinating and I thought the idea was interesting and innovative and something I have never read in a YA novel. But then… eh. I’ll start with the things I liked. As Clem told the story of his grandma, his mother and father and then ...more |
