Congratulations to fellow Birmingham resident Gin Phillips on her new (and first) middle grade novel! After reading Gin's adult novels, I knew she would bring a certain magic to her work for the younger audience. This is a lovely story of friendship that utilizes a unique setting: an abandoned putt-putt golf course. :)
Be sure to check out THE HIDDEN SUMMER. Here are six of my favorite quotes to whet your appetite:
1
"Grandpops is as happy with the cookies
as I am. 'Tastes like leaves falling,' he says."
2
"She's someone who would never have
gotten on the Titanic before counting all the life rafts."
3
"She nods. Of course, when she's being
sweet to me, there's always the part of me waiting for it. Waiting
for her to get tired of playing Mom. Waiting for her to get tired of
liking me. Waiting for the ad things to happen. But the minutes or
the hours pass and that part of me gets lazy and forgets to be on
guard. And then it hurts worse when everything goes bad."
4
"Her skin is very pale and smooth like a
piece of drawing paper."
5
"I am running fast and easy like an
animal on the National geographic Channel. My feet barely hit the
ground as I sprint through the grass. Gazelles should stay out of my
way."
6
"The blossoms are scattering off the
crape myrtles every time the wind blows, falling like hot pink
confetti."
Congratulations to your friend, Irene. I put the book on my list! I love the crape myrtle line!
