Snow apples par Mary Razzell
Although a fictional story, it could have been true. Reflected the history of the time period following WW2 between Port Mellon and Gibsons, BC.
As TAKING A CHANCE ON LOVE opens, Meg is seventeen and ready for a change. It's 1944, and the war keeps grinding on. Her mother tells Meg that it's time to leave school and get a job, get married. Her boy-crazy friend Amy wants romance and good times, and a series of mysterious notes suggests the adults in their village aren't as prim and proper as they appear. Over the course of the novel, Meg grows up, gains various insights about love, romance, and sex, and decides what really matters to her.
TAKING A CHANCE ON LOVE is a good choice for independent reading and should find fans in a school or classroom library. It’s a likeable book, gently paced and told in a straightforward style.

I read this book all in one sitting. I did not want to put it down. I was able to see myself in Sheila's place with her rocky relation with her mother, an dthe beginnings of her first love. That is what made this book so good is that the characters were vbery believable evne though it was set in 1945.
