"A Grown Up Kind of Pretty" by Joshilyn Jackson
A GROWN-UP KIND OF PRETTY is a powerful saga of three generations
of women, plagued by hardships and torn by a devastating secret, yet
inextricably joined by the bonds of family. Fifteen-year-old Mosey
Slocumb-spirited, sassy, and on the cusp of womanhood-is shaken when a small
grave is unearthed in the backyard, and determined to figure out why it's
there. Liza, her stroke-ravaged mother, is haunted by choices she made as a
teenager. But it is Jenny, Mosey's strong and big-hearted grandmother, whose
maternal love braids together the strands of the women's shared past--and who
will stop at nothing to defend their future.
