One for the Murphys

Author: Linda Mullaly Hunt
Stars: 5
Review by:  Gwen K.


This book is so honest.  The emotion is raw.  The characters, especially Karley, are well-developed.  Karley has to stay with a foster family after something (slowly developed over course of book) happens with her mother and step father.  She gets a taste of what it is like to be a Murphy and struggles to find herself. My explanation does this book no justice.  It is talk worthy and amazing.  Hunt thought she was not writing it to be published.  She thought no one would ever read it.  Perhaps that is why the sense of voice is so honest and real.  I would give this ten stars if that were an option.
