Right before Wavie's mother died, she gave Wavie a list of instructions to help her find her way in life, including this one: Be brave, Wavie B! You got as much right to a good life as anybody, so find it! But little did Wavie's mom know that events would conspire to bring Wavie back to Conley Hollow, the Appalachian hometown her mother tried to leave behind.

This was one of the best books I have ever read that addresses the absolute destitute poor in Appalachia. All of the feels, all of the spaghetti and ketchup dinners and all of the waiting on the “mailbox money”. I love they way the book stresses that you can always make your place in the world better by sticking with your friends.
