I'm an avid reader. If I can't find anything nearby to read, even, say, during breakfast, I'll read the back of cereal boxes. And being a bookworm (and proud of it) I like to consider myself a pretty good gauge of a good writer. Julie Camper is, unequivocally, a good writer. And this novel, "Unbearable Girl" an amazing journey into self-discovery and self-acceptance.Dianna, the heroine, is haunting. At the beginning she is a mess, abused both physically and mentally, pushing herself too hard in order to please, a single step away from hitting a metaphorical wall which could crumble her completely. From there her bravery, strength of spirit and ultimately, her realization that love comes in many forms and sometimes from unexpected, but no less marvelous, places.This is a story of a girl's journey from child to adult, from unloved to confident, from broken to strong. Each chapter more captivating than the last, this is one of those books you just can't put down until you've found yourself at the end in breathless amazement at the emotional journey you just traveled along with Dianna.And excellent book, I can't recommend it enough to do it justice!
