Must Love Black by Kelly McClymer - OPTIONAL


McClymer, Kelly Must Love Black, 167 p. Simon Pulse, 2009.

MS - OPTIONAL 

Philipa can't believe that the nanny job is requiring someone who loves black, but when she comes to the beautiful, though slightly spooky mansion on the Maine Coast, she starts to understand that only someone who loves black may be able to figure out the eccentric twin girls who live there.

I'm afraid that the spooky black cover is a bit misleading, because this is not a vampire or creature on the night book - as much as Philippa loves black, she doesn't really come off as a goth girl. But it does show that girls in black may have some skills that girls in pink may just not have. Just for the cover it will get a lot of circulation, but don't be surprised if you get a couple of complaints.
