Book Reviews of Story of a Girl
Book Review: Read it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Very realistic book! Not only did Story of a Girl explore the troubled lives of teenagers, it showed the impact the importance of the support of family and friends. When I first ordered this, I thought it would be just another melodramatic book jam-packed with teen angst, but the plot delved much deeper than I expected.
I'd definitely recommend that you read this book.
