A Good Animal: A Novel
$52.00
In the farm country outside Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan—a border town where life moves slow and dreams run fast—most kids want out. Not Everett Lindt. He’s set on staying put, rebuilding his family’s sheep farm, and carving a future from the land he loves. Then he meets Mary, a new girl in town with restless energy and bigger plans. When she discovers she's pregnant, Everett sees a life together; Mary, however, is desperate to find a way out. Together, they make an impulsive choice—one that could change everything.
Tense, lyrical, and deeply felt, this unforgettable coming-of-age debut breathtakingly captures the ache of first love, the beauty and brutality of rural life, and how one decision can echo through generations and shape who we become.
