I finished A Good Neighborhood in a single sitting. Yes, it's that good. --Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Small Great Things and A Spark of LightIn Oak Knoll, a verdant, tight-knit North Carolina neighborhood, professor of forestry and ecology Valerie Alston-Holt is raising her bright and talented biracial son, Xavier, who's headed to college in the fall. All is well until the Whitmans--a family with new money and a secretly troubled teenage daughter--raze the house and trees next door to build themselves a showplace.With little in common except a property line, these two families quickly find themselves at odds: first, over an historic oak tree in Valerie's yard, and soon after, the blossoming romance between their two teenagers.A Good Neighborhood asks big questions about life in America today--what does it mean to be a good neighbor? How do we live alongside each other when we don't see eye to eye?--as it explores the effects of class, race, and heartrending love in a story that's as provocative as it is powerful.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/25/023/727/1250237270_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "27.99", "our_price" : "9.97", "club_price" : "9.97", "savings_pct" : "64", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "64", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10" } }
