OMG! What a powerful book about a sweet little girl that has to take on the responibilies of an adult to keep herself and little sister alive.  This book reads like a dear close friend telling you her life story, and I was unable to stop reading until I reached the end.  Then I immediately downloaded part two.  There are three books in all and I am looking forward to all of them.  Thank you Mary,  for sharing your life story with the world.  I know it must have been very difficult for you to lay open the doors of the shame you felt.  None of it was your fault,  I hope that you know and feel that now.  Shame on your mother and father.  It is plain to see your dad had PTSD from the war and like so many self medicated with booze,  and then gambling too,  but damn it he had children to take care of,  so get on with it!  Anyway,  if you are reading this to decide if this is the book for you or not,  if you like stories of this topic,  it is well written and moves at a quick pace.  Like I said before,  you will feel as if Mary is a friend,  talking to you.  Can't recommend highly enough!
