Reviews

[Lisa · Rating 2 out of 5]

What a weird book. Not nearly as good as Catherine Woolley's others. A 12-year-old wanders all over Manhattan by herself, stalking a woman she saw in Grand Central Station, and runs into her repeatedly. Totally implausible story. Libby is better off on Cape Cod, picking berries.
