I liked the book. It was right up my alley—coming of age, abandoned outcast girl one with nature from a broken home. The book was more evidence about how alcohol ruins people (140, wide print version). Made me cry numerous times. For those who liked this book too, I recommend “Mij’s Testament: Ailand” by Gail O. Dellslee.

Favorite quote:
“Imagination grows in the loneliest of soils” (41).
