The Center of Everything: A Novel

"Evelyn Bucknow is living with her single mother, Tina, in small apartment outside of Kerrville, Kansas. Thought Tina is warm and loving, she is still young and immature herself, prone to making hotheaded decisions that help create a precarious financial situation for her increasingly anxious daughter. When Tin's failed romance with her married boss leaves her jobless and desperate, Evelyn turns to her grandmother in an effort to distance herself from what she perceives as her mother's irresponsibility, immorality, and plain bad luck. But even the firmest convictions can crumble over time: As Evelyn winces her way through the trials of adolescence, she comes to realize that fortune, like people, can't always be categorized as good or bad." * Hardcover, 291 pages * Pre-owned, great condition, pages are clean NOTE: Color may vary due to light on comp/mobile NOTE: I noticed the pages are now yellowed or not sure if it was published this way
