I wasn't to sure about this book when I picked it up. I looked on the back to read and see if anything would catch my eye. I checked it out not thinking of really much at first. Then I started to read. wondering why she was cooped up in her house, it was putting me on edge. The boy next door really made the story complete. She needed someone to guide her into taking the first steps into the real world again. Learning the story behind her problem, was sad, emotional. End the end she figures out how to deal with the help of the people she loves and letting them in.
