Josie's Handful of Quietness par Nancy Covert Smith
Used to the hard life of her migrant family, twelve-year-old Josie finally realizes her dream of a permanent home and school.
This is my favorite of the trilogy- I liked seeing DeLanna start her new life. I thought it was fitting that she ended up on a farm that would take more spunk than traditional feminine skills. I agree with the neighbor that their farm wasn't a disappointment- it was a good place ready to be molded into whatever they wanted.
At this point DeLanna's not sure what she should do, which is interesting because everyone else seems to know- Andrew, Sara, and the reader (although to be fair, this was a re-read). The only thing I wasn't happy with was that she waited until a month before going to learn so many things she should already have been learning- cures, care of apple trees, etc. I was glad that John finally shut Charity up, but it was annoying that she was still being obnoxious about things.

DeLanna's only battle she doesn't win is the one with her mother- her mother never approves of her. I was pretty surprised by her actions at the end of the book- I thought she'd tell her mother off rather than trying to please her. It was good to see DeLanna get back to her usual wild self.
