One For The Murphys submitted by SBNB on June 12, 2015, 12:31pm Very good book about a girl sent to foster care after experiencing and witnessing physical abuse. It’s a quick read but with deep emotions.

One For The Murphys submitted by ReadBooks on June 23, 2021, 10:21pm Amazing book with lots of emotion. You really care about the characters in this book; I couldn't put it down. This book is very deep, about Carley, a girl sent to live with the Murphys after her own mom and her boyfriend abused her. It is a heartfelt book that I'd highly recommend.
