Rating(1-5 Stars): 4.8
"When I met Mercedes, the protagonist
of the novel, she seemed very different from most 17 year-olds. And soon enough
I was sucked into her world, even though I couldn’t relate to her lifestyle and
parents in real life. She made me feel for and also cringe at some times. Personally,
I loved how she took her problems in her own hands and stopped running from
them and finally faced them in her own unique way." - Y.V., age. 14
