You know it's going to be a good read when you finish the first page and say, "Amen, Sistah. Amen." And yes. I literally said that. Out loud.
And then read it out loud to my mom. And she, too, said "Amen, Sistah. Amen." Or some momish version of that. Because it is fall and I'm so excited about it and this girl obviously gets that, too.
"When Josey woke up and saw the feathery fost on her windowpane, she smiled. Finally, it was cold enough to wear long coats and tights. It was cold for scarves and shirts worn in layers, like camouflage. It was cold enough for her lucky red cardigan, which she swore had a power of its own. She loved this time of year. Summer was tedious with the light dresses she pretended to be comfortable in while secretly sure she looked like a loaf of white bread wearing a belt. The cold was such a relief."
MMM, fall layers. Here I come!
