YA
Bookish, quiet Adrienne is stuck in her small Delaware town for the summer with nothing to do except read books for eleventh-grade AP English. When her single mom insists they join a mother-daughter book club, Adrienne's proscribed world opens up, but her new experiences and self-knowledge come at a price. Chock-full of literary references and wry humor, this is a thought-provoking novel.
