I was hesitant as I began to read this book but only because I was not sure I would like the way it began but it took such a quick turn that I quickly became engrossed in Cassie's story. This book will not be for everyone but i suggest you give it a chanc because I think you will love it. I understood the rough life and always waiting for the other shoe to drop. You are quickly given tiny glimpses into who the charaters are and it makes you really want to know more. It was easy to get lost in the book and in places I wished I was as lucky as Cassie turned out to be. It was a great book and I quickly devoured it and was lwft wanting more. I absolutely can not wait to read more about Cassie, Jessie, and Allie.
