  1. I've seen lots of people mention Dave Pelzer's books and man, I agree, those are some TOUGH reads. It's mind-boggling that there are people in the world who could treat defenseless children so cruelly. *Shudders*

  2. I loved The Edge of Never! It didn't make the list this time, but it's definitely in my top 20 :)
    And The Secrets of Ella and Micha sounds like something I'd enjoy. I'll have to check it out.

  4. Easy is the only one I've read and I love it. It deals with assault in a very empowering way. Most of the others are on my wish list and mostly because of reviews you've written!
