Noticed you liked Girl Interrupted, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a disturbed young girl's mental illness and also a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

You know, I don't know. HAHA. It seems to depend on what computer I'm on whether it will allow me to do a half star or not. But I truly don't know!!!!!! Sorry I can't be of more help!

I'll really will have to Give Elizabeth Berg a try. Someone said she was like Jodi Picoult. Thanks Again for your Suggestion.

Thank you So Much Roxie for your suggestions. I'm going to order them from the library today. Never read Elizabeth Berg am I missing out.

King of Lies
You said:
"The plot was okay but I had a hard time enjoying the book because I hated the main character! I have never met a man so wimpy!"

Exactly!
I expect "Real Men" in stories like these to get mad and get even!--this character seemed to wallow around in his thoughts.
