Winner of award after award, "The Last Chance Texaco" gives voice (sometimes profane) to the sometimes forgotten or misunderstood children that live in group homes, and the various reasons that put them there. I found myself wishing for the happily-ever-after for Lucy... Isn't that what we all want for kids?Lucy has been bounced around from one foster home to another after the death of her parents in a car wreck. She struggles with substance abuse and just has a difficult time lowering her guard because that has proven to be foolish so many times. The Last Chance Texaco is the end of the line for her. She has to get her act together before she ends up at Rabbit Island, a prison of sorts! Hope the best for Lucy!
hmm. sounds like worth a read..
