Popularity 3P Broad general or genre YA appeal. Quote: from "Watcher" by Angela Johnshon -- introductory paragraphs: I use to hang around Public Square and wathc the cars almost run one another off the street. If not there then the library off of East Ninth. I could spend a whole day there just wandering around. Room to room. Scuffing along the marble floors. I used to lose myself -- alone in the city. Mostly I would people-watch. Jacks talks about how she once almost got locked in the library. Ruth asks her if she could find anything -- just anything at all -- to do in the city of Cleveland other than almost getting locked in libraries. She did. She followed me. This book sensitively and realistically covers issues such as deciding to remain a virgin, coming out to family and friends, what happens when you manipulate someone else and how do you know when someone is treating you with respect. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
