Wish You Well



David Baldacci's 'Wish You Well' is a captivating book which cronicles the life of two city bred children Lou and Oz and the turbulent times they face after their fathers sudden death in a car accident. In this coming of age book Lou and her brother Oz leave behind the Big Apple to live with their grandmother on her farm in Virginia. There are several heart wrenching moments but their indomitable spirit finally triumps over every adversity thrown their way. The poetic description of the idyllic landscape is especially beautiful. An ideal read for a rainy afternoon with a cup of hot cocoa in hand.
