Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Ruby was sure she could make it the last few months of her senior year without anyone finding out her mother was gone. Why should she be sent off to stay with someone else when she was doing just fine on her own. Sure they'd turned off the gas, and the electricity, but she wasn't starving, and she could make it on her own. Here sister, Cora doesn't agree, and Ruby goes to live in Cora's perfect neighborhood, with her perfect husband and perfect house. Ruby figures this is no place for her, and the minute they take their eyes off of her, she's going over the fence. But it turns out life isn't so perfect for Cora either, and if Ruby decides to stay, she won't have a perfect life, but she might have a real family.
