Towering by Alex Flinn, 296 pages

Alex Flinn does fairy tale retellings that have been updated to modern times. This one is a take on Rapunzel, with the lettuce being a drug (what else would have a woman willing to trade her baby for it?) I enjoyed the book, feeling that it was quite strong up until the very end. I felt like it fell apart just a little bit and wrapped up way too neatly, but still a good teen read.
