2021 book 15

 Penelope Farmer's Charlotte Sometimes 

This is one of those books I read over and over as a kid, but it’s probably more meaningful to read as an adult? (Yes, it is the inspiration for the song by The Cure.) Anyway, it’s about a girl named Charlotte, who, on her first night at boarding school, begins changing places with another little girl at boarding school...forty years earlier, during WWI. But it is also about loss, identity, family, and bravery. Classic.
