When I first started reading this book, the premise seemed very strange to me. Storks?? As in the bird that delivers babies? Well, yes, sort of. I just had to keep reading and I am so glad that I did. Throughout the book, there were actually two different storylines going and it was fun seeing how it would all play out. 
 Kat's parents had divorced, her Dad cheated on her Mom. Her mother had decided that she wanted to come back to her old stomping grounds in Minnesota. Kat fills in at her grandfather's store sometimes, so that he can get his daily nap. It is while she is watching the store that she notices the fabric store accross the street opened. She has not seen the lights on in that store since she had moved there and wanted to go check it out. She had a few minutes before the apples were to be delivered. She is greeted by the owner, an elderly woman named Hulga and Hulga is not happy to see Kat. Until Kat's hat falls off and Hulga notices the rash on her head. Earlier in the day, Kat had gotten some sort of crazy rash. Her scalp itched so bad and then the boils came. She had no idea what that was all about, but Hulga knew....and soon Kat was being wisked off to the basement to meet the others. 
 As Kat arrives back to the store after her visit with Hulga, the guy delivering the apples is waiting for her. He is a young guy, Kat's age and is insistent that Kat should remember him. Kat has no idea of who this guy is and wanders what is his problem? 
 I enjoyed the relationship between Kat and her friend Penny. Even after some of the awkward situations, Penny still stayed a true friend. I liked the love/hate relationship between Jack and Kat in the beginning, although, I think they fell for each other too fast. It seemed like one day they hated each other and just like that...they were in love? The ending of the book seemed a bit rushed, but I was VERY happy with the outcome. I'm looking forward to the second book, Frost.
