Hey Isabel! I’m Owlgirl, nice to meet you. 

Absolutely Normal Chaos was a great book! I read it in either 5th or 6th grade I believe, and enjoyed it a lot, I liked reading about the “chaos” of her life and how she figured to deal with it. I actually picked it up because I had read another book by that author, Sharon Creech.

Its called Walk Two Moons and it’s about Sal (who’s featured in Absolutely Normal Chaos). I remember not wanting to read it at first, but then I ended up loving it, and re reading it! Maybe you’ll like it more, less, same as Absolutely, (I liked it more, maybe because I read it first) but I think it would be good to try out.

Here’s a summary from online (might paste weird, @Admin)

Thirteen-year-old Salamanca Tree Hiddle, proud of her country roots and the "Indian-ness in her blood," travels from Ohio to Idaho with her eccentric grandparents. Along the way, she tells them of the story of Phoebe Winterbottom, who received mysterious messages, who met a "potential lunatic," and whose mother disappeared. 

As Sal entertains her grandparents with Phoebe's outrageous story, her own story begins to unfold—the story of a thirteen-year-old girl whose only wish is to be reunited with her missing mother.
