This is a book that every female should read in life, especially teenage females. It deals with abuse from the ones you love, even when they in turn return that love. At times this book is harsh and mean, but it's only telling the truth. Alice Hoffman is a wonderful author, she had these characters develop from young children to adults, changing their personality to suit what had happened in their lives. Very realistic fiction.
