Oh, Clementine. So much trouble. Which is probably why I like the book. I don't know whether it's true or not, but I imagine myself as having been a bit like Clementine as a child.
I picked up Clementine at my bookstore when we had a copy we were getting rid of. I read it once way back then, and tucked it away in a box of books. It turned up when I was sorting books last week, and I'm so glad I kept it. It's the first book in a series, but I'm pretty sure I'll never read the others. This one is simple, quick, funny, wonderful. That's good enough.
Haven't read it; don't know what Clementine was like - maybe you WERE like her; but you were definitely "oh my darlin'"
