I read a lot, as you well know, and I can often predict how things will end. Sometimes, though, you see it coming and it still makes you cry.
This weekend, I read Planet Earth is Blue by Nicole Panteleakos, and it was like a gut punch. I totally knew what was coming, but the reaction of the main character, Nova, was so well written that I wanted to crawl through the pages to give her a hug, even though she doesn’t like to be touched.
