Book Overview

by Billie Letts (Author)

A down on her luck pregnant teen finds herself living in a shopping center in this Oprah's Book Club selection that inspired the film starring Ashley Judd and Natalie Portman.

Talk about unlucky sevens. An hour ago, seventeen-year-old, seven months pregnant Novalee Nation was heading for California with her boyfriend. Now she finds herself stranded at a Wal-Mart in Sequoyah, Oklahoma, with just $7.77 in change. But Novalee is about to discover hidden treasures in this small Southwest town-a group of down-to-earth, deeply caring people willing to help a homeless, jobless girl.

From Bible-thumping blue-haired Sister Thelma Husband to eccentric librarian Forney Hull, they are about to take her-and you, too-on a moving, funny, and unforgettable journey.
