The Almost Sisters
The Almost Sisters
by Joshilyn Jackson
Lovely, Lovely Book (6/7/2017)
I stayed up late to finish this book. Something I haven't done in a long time. Joshilyn Jackson's use of language was so fun. The book read so easily, yet subjects covered were quite heavy - racism in the South, mixed race children, care of older humans. Leia's character …more
