Yea! A book to recommend to teens who do *NOT* want a vampire or
supernatural book. Cara and what her life is like at school provide the
story's basic structure. Unfortunately, Cara also happens to be one of
those kids that just really doesn't seem to fit into school life very
well. A lot of what happens to Cara is outside her ability to control
(she is bullied and tormented) but just as sadly, it often seems that
Cara's lack of confidence and social skills make he so ill-at-ease with
daily situations it's like she becomes her own worst enemy. Story is
written so that you *think* Cara's life is going one way...but be
prepared for a nice, juicy twist. If you're a reader that just loves a
surprise, this is NOT a book to read the ending pages first. On the
other hand, if you are a reader who likes to see how an author puts
things together in an interesting way and knowing the ending won't spoil
the pleasure of the book, by all means...see if you can figure out
what's what
