My #doublespin book. Elizabeth is Rosies mom, alcoholic, but not a mean one , bookworm, educated but after losing Rosies father in an accident, struggles to find her place in the world .Rosie is bright & funny.A very Bay Area book from the 1980s , nice to revisit to the no cell phone era, & if you wanted to hear a song again on a record, had to get up & move the needle.Ironic I had no idea it was a 3 book series!May get to them eventually.
