Also check out Marina Budhos' first book, Ask Me No Questions.<br /><br />@Christine-Agreed and I don't want to wait for them anymore!<br /><br />@Heather H-That's true, the cover of the Turning is so intriguing and gorgeous :)<br /><br />@Lauren-It would be sort of awkward to go to school with the children your mother babysits. tell Us We're Home has an unique perspective that I look forward to reading.<br /><br />@Kris-Glad you added both books to your list =) I actually heard about Tell Us We're Home from your challenge list! I'll edit this and give you credit.MissAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11042352415616854651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-84313424275170469882010-04-02T15:08:47.739-05:002010-04-02T15:08:47.739-05:00I cannot wait for both of these books!

I was actually just thinking recently how it must be so difficult for the children of nannies, knowing that their parent spends so much time with someone else's child - but going to school together must be really weird. I'll definitely check that one out.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06483030255023873716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-33106451132478538782010-04-01T13:35:50.603-05:002010-04-01T13:35:50.603-05:00If the blurb for The Turning didn't already in...If the blurb for The Turning didn't already intrigue me, its cover alone would be enough to make me read it.

Very little was mentioned about her biological parents and she seems to consider herself white. Her same-age, adopted sister/best friend is black though.Jacqueline C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09761461686932219434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-26093280352869362512010-03-31T21:08:29.712-05:002010-03-31T21:08:29.712-05:00I'm really REALLY looking forward to this book...I'm really REALLY looking forward to this book!!
