Summary: The War in Georgia
Review: The book starts out when Shanta's aunt and cousin, Honey move out. She is left alone with her Grandmother and her Uncle Louie,
because her parents died when she was little. When the Wallings move to the neighborhood, she knows what's it like to have friends that are more like family, because they help her through rough times when she needs someone to talk to. I thought this book was okay, but it was boring in parts. I really don't know if I would recommend it or not. So, if you want to read this book go to the nearest library and check it out.

Summary: Another Realistic YA by Oughton
Review: Told in a vivid Southern first person, "The War in Georgia" takes place during the summer of 1945, and its poignant, uneasy battles and victories are mirrored by World War II. A frequent theme of Oughton's is 'what constitutes a family?'. Shanta Cola's homelife depicts a nontraditional but enviably solid family. Oughton's compassionate novels lovingly co-mingle hopes and hurts, and are a pleasure - if a bittersweet one - for adults as well as adolescents to read
