How do I describe why I found this book so moving?I think it all comes down to the way Anna Cruise captured Meg's pain so beautifully. I felt like I was reading a true story about a girl who was hurting and didn't know how to handle all the crappy things life was throwing at her.The characters in this book are real and the emotion is raw. I love the way the bad boy appeared sweet, but deep down was just plain bad. How true to life is that? I love the way the good guys were good and in spite of the way they were treated, remained solid and true...just like good friends do.I could relate to Meg's feelings of helplessness and the need to feel loved and accepted by someone...even if that someone was the worst person to be with. I keep coming back to the same point - but the story felt real...and it touched my heart.Kudos to Anna Cruise for capturing life's emotions in a story that hurt to read, but left me smiling.
