COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Redeeming features? submitted by purpledancer on June 26, 2013, 10:07pm From the beginning, sad and depressing events affect the protagonist. Her account of her life provides few positive insights, and it's difficult to understand what would induce a reader to finish this book other than sheer determination.
