...Elizabeth Catherine Bush was no Charles Andrew Williams. She didn't shoplift booze or boast of pulling a Columbine. Bush was a quiet eighth-grader who attended Bishop Neumann High School in Williamsport, Pa., a cozy Roman Catholic school that holds spaghetti suppers and sock hops. A stickler for safety, Bush lectured the school bus driver for speeding through railroad crossings.

...teenager's sexual awakening creates tension between her and her secret-keeping, young single mother: it's like Gilmore Girls done as domestic drama.
