The Deepest Blue by Kim Williams Justeen
Mike hasn’t spoken to his mother in years, and what few memories he has of her are painful. When Mike’s dad is killed in a car wreck, Mike wants to stay in his hometown and live with Maggie, his dad’s girlfriend, who has been like a mother to him for the last five years. But Mike’s mother reappears in his life and demands that he return to her custody and live on the other side of the country with a family he doesn't know. The law is on his mother’s side, and Mike will have to grow up quickly and take on the legal system to have the life he wants. This deeply moving story of a young teen's difficult family relationships reflects the reality of many children and teens with strong emotional ties to adults who have no legal rights in the instance of death or divorce.

Nice tease!!
ReplyDeleteTons of us are going with Anna! Also seeing a lot of Asylum, The Replacement and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. All creepy covers!
Something about No One Else Can Have You's cover makes me laugh. I guess because it looks like one of those hideous Christmas sweaters, yet this one is bit more grotesque! Not that the grotesqueness is funny, but I guess the idea of making fun of said Christmas sweater is why I tend to chuckle. Although the book itself did sound creepy!
Dorothy Must Die is one I cannot wait to read either! Guess I like the different spins on beloved favorite stories or movies. And I don't know...the title makes me laugh too, because Dorothy was our heroine! Now she's our villain!
Here's my Tuesday Post
