Out of the Blue by Sarah Ellis 120 pages

This book is a Mr. Christie's book award winner. In addition to the fact, he makes good cookies, this is a great choice for an award winner. It was also shortlisted for the Governor General's LIterary Award.

Megan's parents have a surprise for her 12th birthday but it is not what she expected. The story unfolds with some dramatic changes coming to the family and how they cope. Great story for blended families.

The book is brief and has a few slow moving passages but I did like what I read. I would consider this one a quick read.

I like Ellis so this is why I also chose the book.
