Ivy was anything but normal to people around her, including her family. An aspiring historian, she learns that you have to follow your dreams despite other people's opinions. She was always compared to her aunt Josephine who is "stuck in the backwater". Will Ivy find her aunt and maybe, truley, find out her family's past? Backwater is a great read for all students. The reading level is pefect for teens. I guarantee that if you like fiction, independent people, and mystery, you will love this book. Here is a taste of this great story. "My face and head were sweating despite the cold. My breath came in quick gasps... My pack felt like it was five hundred pounds...Mountain Mama leaped over to a flat ledgless mountain. And the knowledge that I was on the ledge alone caused me to absolutelt freeze."
