Doodlebug writes the following about Where the Heart Is :

Novalee Nation is suspicious about her sevens. She is seven-teen years old, seven months pregnant and is heading to California with her boyfriend. Now she is living in a Wal-Mart in her Sequoyah, Oklahoma with $7.77 in her pocket. Where the Heart Is, is a masterpiece written by the brilliant author, Billie Letts. As Novalee gets to see the town, she meets new, caring people. From blue-haired Sister-Thelma Husband to the smart librarian, Forney Hull. Forney loves Novalee more than he loves himself. Novalee feels that he deserves someone better. What will happen? How will a 17-year-old girl make it with no place to go and a baby on the way? From funny to an unforgettable ride on a roller coaster, Where the Heart Is will keep a smile on your face and keep you on the edge of your seat. I rate it ten stars and two thumbs up.
