Jennifer Holm is a prolific author of the Babymouse series and multiple other books for middle graders. This is the first novel of hers that I've read, and I will say it was a bit different than I thought it would be.
This is eleven year old Ellie's coming of age story. Ellie's best friend and she are drifting apart, and to make matters even weirder her grandfather has found a fountain of youth and turned himself into a teenager. Now, Ellie's grandpa Melvin is living with her and her mom, she's having to make new friends, and (with prompting from her newly young grandfather) she's learning that she loves science.
That is not the best description of the book, but it was the best I could do. While this book does have a science theme, it is really a story about growing up and about loving your family. It's also a story about taking chances and changing your life in the ways that you want it changed. I read through the book quickly enough, and I enjoyed the characters, but it was a little bland for me. I finished the book a few days ago and I had to look Ellie's name up for this review because I'd forgotten it already. I think that fans of middle grade books, and those that already read Jennifer L. Holm's books will enjoy this thoughtful yet light novel.

Thanks for sharing this. Is WordPress really that different from blogger in terms of getting a lot of traffic for your foodblog? I’m quite hesitant in getting my own domain name for now since I’m not sure how much my blog will grow. How much did it cost you total to create your wonderful blog?

Hi.
After reading several of your reviews on the Librarykat's world blog, I think you might enjoy my newly (self) published YA fiction novel, during your next review cycle. Your review of "Suspicion" by Alexandra Monir displayed the depth of insight that I am seeking for an early reviewer.
My book, Perfect Imperfection, centers around the adventures of a not-too-smart, over-weight young man with a receding hairline who stumbles onto and into a secret benevolent society of scientists, called Perfect Imperfection or PI. With assistance PI’s accelerated learning and artificial intelligence technologies, Billings trains to become a virtual secret agent that helps humanity in the face of accelerating scientific, ecological and social evolution. The antagonist, Blackbeard, an elite black hat hacker, employs cutting-edge tech to land the biggest score of his career. An epic virtual game of cat and mouse ensues, with everything in the balance.
I've tried to give hope to the reader despite the path the world is on, that there is a way to save us. The point behind the story is to show we can overcome the trivialness of our imperfections, be they physical, social, intelligence or economic. I will donate all profits of the book to causes that are consistent the book’s key themes.
By way of introduction, my name is S. E. Gould, and I’m a recovering software entrepreneur and corporate finance executive, looking to spend the best part of my life writing fiction that may help inspire the world to choose a better path.
If you are interested in reviewing, I am happy to send you a paperback version. Lastly, if you want an interview or run a giveaway for your followers, I can help you out there as well. If you are on a reviewing pause, please keep me in mind when you restart. I appreciate your consideration.
Regards,
S. E. Gould
