I’m not really sure why this book got such bad reviews. Granted, at the beginning I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it and I was having a hard time understanding what was going on. But as the book progressed and I started to understand where the storyline was going, I really enjoyed reading Chloe’s story. It was heartbreaking and very emotional but ended very hopeful. I would like to look into reading one of this authors books again. ( )

I liked this one.
In a morbid sort of way.
Why do I like reading about destroyed teens? ( )

This is the harrowing story of a seventeen year old girl who has been rescued from a life of prostitution. Instead of being grateful and looking forward to the future Chloe can only look at the past, she can't begin to imagine a future. One of the doctors in the Madeline Parker Institute for Girls finally starts to get Chloe to open up about her troubled past and let go of her feelings. The story is told through a series of flashbacks and life in the home. We are introduced to her troubled childhood and the other girls in the home that are struggling with equally bad and sometimes worse problems. It's chilling and heartbreaking. ( )

This book was fascinating because it takes you into the mind of the type of person society prefers to ignore a prostitute. He characters were very 3 dimensional, this book forced you to connect with them. I read this book because of the summary on the back and the title was intriguing.

I read this book as an adult, even though the target audience is young adults. This book has given me the courage to confront some of the same problems I faced growing up. ( )
