2019 book 146

Kate DiCamillo's Louisiana's Way Home
The second book in DeCamillo's Raymie Nightingale series focuses on her friend Louisiana--a talented singer from a family of performers, who is prone to fainting, and whose grandmother whisks her away in the middle of the night. I will say that I find the characters here likable--it's nice to have some warm-hearted people in the world--but the plot strains incredulity for an adult reader. It's a very sweet story but it doesn't really hold together for me. B.
