Title: Almost Home
Author: Nora Raleigh Baskin
Summary: Leah Baer is a troubled young middle schooler. She has been moved around from household to household and parent to parent after her parents' divorce. At school, she meets a nice boy, and the two become friends. He encourages her to get involved with theater. Slowly, Leah makes her way through her problems.
Comments: I liked this book. Ruby on the Outside, one of Nora Raleigh Baskin's more recent works cannot be topped by any of her other books in my opinion, but her other available titles are still worth reading. (Though I suggest saving the best, Ruby on the Outside, for last :P)
This book is quick and short and there is one inappropriate word/scene in the book, so I would recommend the book for 10-12+.
There is not much for me to say about this book. It did not spark my interest or excitement as much as I had hoped that it would, and it did not leave me speechless and spellbound afterwards as some of my favorite books do. However, I do recommend it, because the book is by no means "bad" or "uninteresting", it just didn't spark my interest.
Rating 3 stars
