Every so often, a book comes along that changes you as a person. Orphanland is one of those books. It follows the story of Willa, an eleven year old orphan whose children’s home is at threat of closure due to lack of funds. Somehow, this pre-teen read manages to cover more social issues than a…

Through a mixture of fear and poverty, the writer Shavonne continues to go on dates with Lewellyn. Pretty much exactly what the title suggests. I have a real problem writing this…
