Hailey is a girl/woman fighting to find her way. She is stuck with a Mother to wrapped up in her own life & image. Hailey's father is drowning his pain in alcohol and women. Her brother Cyrus can only find release from his anger by beating others.I felt the pain and confusion in the story but felt the most turning points of the story were diluted. I was waiting for the happy ending but none ever came. I think this is what made the book easier to relate to. Not every story has a happy ending. Not to say this book is a tragedy far from it. It shows the strength of a family. It shows more depth that most stories. I would recommend this book.
