Joyce Maynard has wonderful phrases and clusters of words that capture that perfect thought or feeling, that I may have thought but wouldn't be able to nail down with words. She writes in a very true to life way, not excluding the "real" and not so pretty emotions, from her story. This is a book I would own, if not only to reread, but highlight the phrases that spoke to me.
