Why read it?
1 author picked Skinnybones and the Wrinkle Queen as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I was guilted into buying the book when I went to Glen’s book signing event. He’s a friend. After the reading, I noticed that everyone in attendance had one or more copies of his books along with their credit cards in their hands. I felt obligated to buy a copy. The book sat on my shelf for several weeks until guilt forced me to take it down and read. I finished the book that night, and reread it the next day. I recommend it all the time.
From Darlene's list on friendship between young people and seniors.
