OLDER FICTION
Koertge, Ron

Margaux with an X

(1) YA Beautiful, popular high school senior Margaux befriends gangly "animal nut" classmate Danny. Reading is one thing the odd couple have in common (the other is a history of neglect and abuse), and it's clear, through the limited-omniscient narration, that Margaux loves books and language as much as does Koertge himself. Young adults will find this a meticulously crafted story of an unexpected friendship.
