A pregnant teenager abandoned by her boyfriend in Sequoyah, Oklahoma, finds a new home with the eccentric and caring people of the community

"This book is full of heart and I just loved it! Novalee Nation is used to being treated like trash, and at 17 years old and pregnant she is abandoned by her boyfriend in a Walmart carpark. This is the story od her coming of age, and the relationships she develops along the way. Beautifully written. Reviewed by Jemma".
