Scumble by Ingrid Law

      Imagine dreading your thirteenth birthday. For most families turning thirteen is a big deal, and a very exciting day but not for the Beaumont family. When a child in the Bueamont family turns thirteen they develop a "savvy." Ledge Beaumont's part of the family is expected to travel west to their family ranch just five days after Ledge's thirteenth birthday. When Ledge's birthday comes with great anticipation and then leaves again without anything exploding or a short power outage, the family, still nervous, starts the long drive west. It isn't far into their journey when events start to happen that change their drive.
      I would definitely recommend Scumble by Ingrid Law. I would call it a book that includes the whole package, meaning that  it has a very developed plot and characters whose feelings and emotions are well described.
