Between two trailers : a memoir / by Trent, J. Dana,author.;
"An unforgettable memoir about a girl who escapes her childhood as a preschool drug dealer to earn a divinity degree from Duke University--and then realizes she must confront her past to truly find her way home. "Home, it turns out, is where the war is. It's also where the healing begins." Born to drug-dealing parents in rural Indiana, Dana Trent is a preschooler the first time she uses a razor blade to cut up weed and fill dime bags for her schizophrenic father, King. While King struggles with his unmedicated psychosis, Dana's mother, the Lady, a cold and self-absorbed woman whose personality disorders rule the home, guards large bricks of drugs from the safety of their squalid trailer, where she watches TV evangelist Tammy Faye on repeat. Growing up, Dana tries to be the daughter each of her parents wants: a drug lord's heir and a debutante minister. But when the Lady impulsively plucks Dana from the Midwest and moves the two of them south, their fresh start results in homelessness and bankruptcy. In North Carolina, Dana becomes torn between her gritty midwestern past and her desire to be a polite southern girl, hiding her homelife of drugs and parents whose severe mental illnesses have left them debilitated. Dana imagines that her hidden Indiana life is finally behind her after she graduates from Duke University and becomes a professor and an ambivalent female Southern Baptist minister. But Dana was a child of the drug trade. Though she escapes flyover country, she realizes that she will never be able to escape her father's legacy, and that her childhood secrets have kept her from making peace with the people and places that shaped her. Ultimately, Dana finds that no one can really "make it" until they return to where their story began: home"--

The boo hag flex / by Ireland, Justina.; Hanna Alkaf.;
The last thing Tasha wants is to move from her home in Atlanta to Middle-of-Nowhere, Georgia. But when her mother dies and Tasha is taken in by her father--a man she's never met, who took off when she was just a baby--she doesn't have much of a choice. The trailer park where Tasha's father and grandmother live seems like a miserable place to spend a summer, even before one of her neighbors mysteriously passes away. That's when she meets a girl named Ellie, who's sure she knows what's behind the death: a shadowy, spindly creature that stalks the trailer park at night. Tasha doesn't want to believe it, but when she discovers an old book of hoodoo and Southern legends in her grandmother's trailer, and more people around her fall ill, she begins to fear that Ellie's story is true and that danger might be closer than she thinks"--Ages 8-12.
