Review of "The Warden's Daughter" on 'GoodReads'
4 stars
A fine book, worthy of the Newberry. A strange situation, being in a prison warden's home. It is a compliment to this type of book that it is incompatible with speed-listening; the emotion is too nuanced, and the relationships too faceted, to take in at high-speed. I found the intensity of the blooming teenage emotions to be hard to stomach in their bitterness and fury, but the book was remarkable for the high energy level it maintains for the bulk of the story. It is, indeed, a very hard summer for Cammy, and it is a privilege to live through by proxy.
