They made us clean our lockers on the last day of sophomore year. I tore down the class schedule I'd taped to the inside of the door at the beginning of the semester and tossed it into the pile of recycling that already included ninety-five percent of the crap I'd busted my ass to do all year.

3.5 stars. I "got" Deanna, but didn't particularly like her or any of the characters in the book. I felt for Deanna with her crappy home & life situation, though. I also liked the message of this book and the glimmer of hope at the end, but it seemed to come together a little quickly at the end.

what would have been a thirty minute coffee break this morning morphed into two hours of me ordering one round after another, all because i didn't want this to end. i might have gotten couple side glances too, with maybe imaginary word bubbles of 'what's bugging you and why the clenched jaw?' direct...

4.5 starsI know full well how dramatic this is going to sound, but this book broke my heart. Not violently, or loudly, with a single devastating blow; but quietly and slowly, taking it apart piece by painful piece. Whatever emotional sandbagging I’d done in the intervening years proved a poor defenc...

Nothing like how I thought it would be. Quick read, but not at all interesting.
