Excerpt: I dont have the book.. but here is one part that i could remember, more or less
"I walked into the living room with Fern's head buried in between my mother's legs...... It dawned on me - Fern was a muff diver. And she was diving in my mother's muff"
Thoughts: ^^thats exactly how the book is. its hard to believe that all this could happen to this one kid, that people DO these kind of things. my first thought was 'they GOT to make a movie of this' ... and they are ;)
