As She Left It by Catriona McPherson


BookNerd 
Fool For Books Giveaway Hop



Untangling the shame and sorrow on Mote Street

At the age of twelve, Opal Jones escaped her mother's endless drinking and her life in Leeds, England. Returning to the small cottage on Mote Street after her mum's death is like going back in time. Nosey Mrs. Pickess is still polishing her windows to a sparkle (the better to spy) and Fishbo, Opal's ancient music teacher, is still playing trumpet. Then, Opal learns about a tragedy the neighborhood has never recovered from: the disappearance of three-year-old Craig Southgate. The sweet, red-haired child Opal once knew was kidnapped -- and never seen again.

At first, unraveling the decade-old mystery is a fine distraction from Opal's own ugly past. But teasing out her neighbors' dark secrets begins dredging up uncomfortable memories of her own childhood - and a growing suspicion about little Craig's fate.

  1. Nope, at least not when it's just me and my husband. We sleep in. But if I have my grandchildren, we have no choice, we're up sucking coffee in the wee hours of the morning and "wishing" we were sleeping in LOL

  35. No, but now I'm tempted. Cartoons and a big bowl of cereal sound like a great nostalgic way to start my Saturday. Off to see what's available on netflix!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Gosh no. When I'm awake I watch VH1 top 20 countdown.

    ReplyDelete
  37. No, there are no good cartoons on anymore! Although I did just notice today that Netflix now has a bunch of Cartoon Network shows available. My favorite Saturday morning cartoons were in the 80's, but there were some decent CN ones in the last decade or so.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Sometimes but not because they are cartoons but because there's nothing else to watch.
