The author says this book is somewhat autobiographical. For me also. Set during the 1970s, a young girl finds she has to go live with her grandfather in Florida for part of the summer without realizing the family truth... her older brother is on drugs and alcohol. You get a glimpse of what is happening with the brother, but the focus is on what is happening with the young girl in Florida. The grandfather tries his best to make the stay like a vacation, but what can a tween really do in a retirement village with everyone around older that 55?
