Lucky Me

The Thing about Luck is a new book from the amazing Cynthia Kadohata.  I loved this book for a lot of reasons.  I loved that it taught me a LOT.  I had no idea about the lives and jobs of those who follow the harvest through the midwest and harvest wheat.  That is just one company of many.  And also I thought the book was really subtle and gentle, yet things happened and it was interesting and just so well written and nuanced.  There was so much in here about intergenerational relationships and cultural differences and brothers and sisters and exceptional needs.  This was just really, really good, you know?  Highly recommended!
