Read with Jenna

"Read with Jenna."

"Nora is a spitfire on the cusp of adulthood in 1950s America. She's curious, sharp, and resilient. In quick succession she loses her mother, gains a stepfamily, and moves thousands of miles to newly developing Florida, but she never loses her spark--which is what attracts Leonard, the handsome, older boy at her new high school. Soon, Nora and Leonard are inseparable. Not everyone is comfortable with their tender romance, however, and they are abruptly torn apart. Over a dramatic period of years that include the separations of war and dreams deferred, Nora never forgets what it felt like to love and be loved the way she experienced during her adolescence, and she never stops longing for the person who made her feel whole."--Provided by publisher
