Plot in a nutshell: Caitin wakes up one morning to find her sister gone.

She starts to date Rogerson, a drug dealer and after awhile he becomes abusive.
Main Characters: Caitlin and Rogerson
What I liked best: I like that Caitlin friends and family are really there for her but she can't see it. SHe just feels sorry for her self and thinks that everyone has forgotten her. They all want to help her but she just pushes them away. I also like that I had no idea what this book was about. I thought it was going to be this cute great love story but it wasn't and I still liked it! The book tell Caitlin's view. I think every girl should read this because I would hope that they would be smart enough to never let someone abuse them. I didn't know that the book was going to be about abuse. If I known I don't think I would have read it because I am totally not the kind of girl to let that happen to me so I would have been "oh what a dumb bitch. I thought it was going to be a love story, and it was, but with a twist. I am so glad I read this book because I got to see what Caitlin was thinking. Plus I know some one who was abused and I have always thought WHY WOULD SHE PUT UP WITH THAT SHIT! Caitlin showed me what she was thinking and why she did what she did. Not that I agree with her but I could see what she was going though and what she thought!
What I liked least: I hated Rogerson when he started to hit Caitlin! I hated that her mother become so wrapped up with making Cass come home that she forgot about Caitlin
over all rating: I loved it! It was like nothing I've read before. I really like the Author and want to read more of her books.
