Wow. From Markham and his reindeer exploits to 19th C. slums and cruelties and filth therein. Really enjoyed this one.

Go, Max! I was listening to this one in the car with my teenage son (also a St. Mary's fan!), and we cheered Max on as she got her revenge!

OMG -- this was a heartbreaker but in a good way. I love that Max - who never thinks she's a good mom - really came through! But I cried.... in a good way!
