The Lovebird

A 2013 Montana Book Award Honor Book Margie Fitzgerald has a soft spot for helpless creatures; her warm heart breaks, her left ovary twinges, and she is smitten with sympathy. Under the spell of her seductive but troubled Latin professor, she joins a ragtag group of animal rights activists called Operation H.E.A.R.T., and appears to have found her mission in life. But in time Margie’s increasingly reckless and dangerous actions force her to flee her flowery California home, say goodbye to her fragile dad, and seek shelter on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana. There, she will make unexpected discoveries about animals, kinship, love, and her own heart.
