I have a copy of Love, Ruby Lavender but I haven't read it yet.

I just don't remember the first book well enough--except that I adored it! Gabi is wonderful, isn't she? Definitely one of my new YA faves. You know, I don't know if I've read any Deborah Wiles.... that's scandalous, isn't it? Aurora County All-Stars seems like a good place to start. I'm in the middle of Circus and liking it quite well.Elisabeth Ellingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00747914394861199796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2599471237636371761.post-13792633324222781072015-08-10T15:06:07.224-07:002015-08-10T15:06:07.224-07:00I have heard such great things about Gabi, a Girl ...I have heard such great things about Gabi, a Girl in Pieces.

As you know, I am also a SUPER fan! So I am so excited that you are going to lend me your copy. I had Circus Mirandus and couldn't get into it. I just picked it up at the library yesterday and am going to try again. The slow start just didn't work for me and I am hoping I will be in the right mood this time. I can't believe you are moving with everything else going on! My oh my! P.S.

While it was an immensely satisfying read, I feel like there is so much more waiting to happen. Wiles, The Aurora County All-Stars, is profoundly sweet and powerful at the same time.
