The Brilliant Fall of Gianna Z. by Kate Messner
195 pages
Mark Twain Nominee
Still working on the award books, and this one is hard to read. My 90 year old grandfather is in the hospital right now, and Gianna's grandmother is slipping into Alzheimer's. But it was filled with a light humor, and Gianna's character is so much like mine, it did make me smile. (But yes, I am definitely ready for a good YA adventure!)
