Where the Watermelons Grow by Cindy BaldwinMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I enjoyed this story and I respect the voice - but I am not from this part of the country and it doesn't really "bring me home". The thoughts, however, were true and real: self-blame, misunderstandings, the burdens of responsibility. I have never had to deal with mental illness as directly as this, but I respect how the father treated the mother and how the young girl had to come to grips with it, too.
