This book is a great book, but very depressing. It would be a good book either way but I think if the author had added a little dialog, it may have made the story seem more real. The story is about a young girl named Rose, who had life pretty rough when she was growing up. She battled sexual abuse, mental and emotinal abuse , and considering all that she had been through as a child, she tried to be a good mother to her children. With her mental illnesses it made her emotional strnegth disappear. By the end of the story I wanted to slap her step mother and step sister. But it has a happy ending. You'll have to read it for yourself to know what I mean. Happy reading!!!
A stimulating story that will grab your heart.
