"This was a very bittersweet book to read....I cried.....and I was so proud of Julie for the way she handled her pain leading up to the day of her death. I hurt for Sam and the confusion and frustration she felt and her being so alone...neither of her parents being there for her....she was her own island slowly drowning in her pain. The bond of these two girls was amazing and incredible. This was a very sad, but uplifting book and I highly recommend it to others."
