Finding Evie

More about the book

I'm sure we all must have told ourselves, at least once while growing up, that life couldn't possibly get worse. As Rod Serling, host of the ancient TV show, *The Twilight Zone*, actually never said, "Imagine if you will," being the eldest female child in a family with no parenting. Imagine being "Mommy" to a pair of irresponsible, substance-addicted adult children. Imagine taking on the responsibility of being the nanny for younger siblings, the maid for lazy, hungover parents, the literal whipping girl for a father's outbursts. Catina Noble has nailed it in *Finding Evie*. She has managed to portray Evie Feathers as though she herself had lived through each and every soul-destroying experience and come out, not merely as a survivor, but as a thriver. Finding Evie holds hope between its covers for neglected children.
