A love story that can not be argued with.
On the surface the story seems like a romance between a girl and a guy. But when its discovered that it is a story of a 13 yr old and her 40+ year old uncle who keeps seeking her out on her own, the story takes on a very disturbing turn for me. Overall, the story is written with humor and sensitivity - so much so that it almost makes it seem OK for the uncle and niece to do what they did (yikes!).
The metaphor of learning to drive as a way to navigate through the twists and turns that life has to offer was done very well. I would have liked to have read more about how her relationship with Peck affected Lil Bit as she grew up.
