The People We Keep

 Fiction by Allison Larkin

It's 1994, and sixteen-year-old April lives in a motorhome in the woods in Little River, New York. Her father lives with his girlfriend across town. So, nobody much cares when she drops out of high school and eventually runs away, beginning a nomadic life singing in bars.

This was a good story, and I really liked April's character. I didn't love a lot of her choices though.

And I really don't love categorizing a book from the 1990's as 'historical fiction'...
