“Nashville has been called many things: ‘Music City,’ the ‘Athens of the South,’ or even ‘It City.’ (Thanks for that last one, New York Times.) But many of us just call it home, and while we’re grateful that a bunch of travel and food magazines think we’re awesome, we still have a few tricks up our sleeves. — Whatever you’re looking for– this book will help you find it”

“The UFO story line culminates in a confusing sequence which may leave readers wondering whether it was real or not, while the ending has the nostalgic feel of an adult looking back on one’s childhood rather than the musings of an authentic tween girl. Despite these minor drawbacks, Pelletier has crafted a timeless coming-of-age story set in small town America. Hand this book to readers who enjoy good, old-fashioned stories.”
