  1. Ghost Girl

    My mom read it. ;D


  2. "no one wants you - A memoir of a child forced into prostitution" It's not very well written but that can be excused since she wrote it herself. It is just an amazing story.

    on the back of the book

    The first rape was at age 7, in her communion dress. The next was two months later. Then Celine was considered initiated into the ways of s*x. Illegitimate and unwanted, she was now ready to be a professional prostitute - with her foster mother as her pimp. Her bones were broken, her nose was broken, she ate wax candles in the church to stay alive - she just thought she was being punished. After six long years 13-year-old Celine was finally rescued and sent to an Industrial School. She tried to pick up the pieces of her shattered life and only a few years later started training to be a nurse. She also began the search for her parents. But her battered survival instincts could barely sustain the shock that came with that knowledge.

  3. Ellen Foster by Kaye Gibbons is a great book.

  4. "Running with Scissors" by Augusten Burroughs

    "Sybil" by Flora Rheta Schreiber

    "Flowers In The Attic" by V.C. Andrews

  5. The book BURNED by Ellen Hopkins is amazing. It's about a girl, Pattyn, whose father is abusive and also extremist Mormon.

    Also, the same author isreleasing IDENTICAL tomorrow which deals with sexual abuse from a father.

  6. White Oleander by Janet Fitch. Amazing book.
