Title: Required reading for all Americans
Review: This is a beautiful, riveting memoir about a brother and sister battling the odds. I literally could not put it down and found myself paging through it at work and at stoplights in the car. My world view was completely changed in reading it.I consider it required reading for Americans because racism and Christian Evangelicism continue to drag this country down, and Scheeres' experience with both is a one in a million story. Her account reveals the workings of extreme Christian fanaticism, how teenagers are abused and brainwashed. It is a call to look into the serious human rights violations of these "reform schools."Second, it is an amazing story about two siblings, white and black, who are forced to be each others only family; in the end, the power of sibling love transcends everything.
