Title: Disappointing--is this what we want for our daughters?
Review: I expected something worth reading when this book was recommended by Oprah. I've read several Oprah selections and now think Oprah ought to stick to talking and forget about reading. This book was a failure. When are novelists going to stop giving us poor, abused, downtrodden, children as heroines? Do they think all of America is sexually active at age 12 or 14? I won't be taking any of Oprah's recommendations in the future. If you enjoy incest, child abuse, violence, depression, suicide, and adultery--all from a child's perspective--you will love this book. Otherwise, don't waste your money.
