Dive into Ivy in the Shadows


If you’re a gal who can’t resist the humor and hardships of a young girl all in one classic coming of age tale, then you don’t want miss out on Ivy in the Shadows by Chris Woodworth. 

  

Ivy seems to be completely lost. Struggling to get along with her mother and constantly on babysitting duty with her younger brother JJ, Ivy feels completely trapped at home. To make matters worse, her mom decided to take in a boarder named Caleb, who is 12 just like she is.

 

Caleb seems like the strangest boy Ivy has ever met and she’s determined to keep her chaotic family life a secret from her best friend, Ellen. Not only is her family going broke, Ivy is left in charge of the entire house while her mother tries to make ends meet. Add Pastor Harold into the mix and everything seems to be even more complicated. Will she learn to get along with Caleb, or will he be just another problem in her life?

 

Ivy is such a relatable character because everyone can understand the pressures and confusion she faces as she approaches her teenage years. Smart, witty and very strong for a 12-year-old, you’ll fall in love with this character.

 

Be sure to grab a copy of Ivy in the Shadows (available now) and read on as Ivy learns about the importance of family and the unimportance of school drama.
