What I'm Reading

Bereft, by Chris Womersley, is one of the most haunting books I've read in a long time. I can't put it down. It reminds me a little of To Kill a Mockingbird in its depiction of small town life, the crackle and sizzle of summer, the secrets kept by adults and unravelled by children. It is beautifully written but also a page-turner. What more can I ask for? I promise to post a full review when I finish reading it.
