Two motherless sisters--Bean and Liz--are shuttled to Virginia, where their Uncle Tinsley lives in the decaying mansion that's been in their family for generations. When school starts in the fall, Bean easily adjusts and makes friends, and Liz becomes increasingly withdrawn. Then something happens to Liz and Bean is left to challenge the injustice of the adult world.

nice submitted by michael007 on June 30, 2013, 6:01pm It is a nice book!

loved it submitted by unknown on July 10, 2013, 7:04am Jeannette Walls did not disappoint in her first attempt at non fiction. I loved this book

riveting submitted by ginarae3 on August 15, 2016, 11:49am I couldn't put this down. It was light enough that I gobbled it up, but tense enough that it was a page turner. I laughed, cried, and felt real anger even though I know this was only a work of fiction.

Well written submitted by jduffy12 on August 31, 2018, 10:49pm I like how it covers a lot
