This is the story of troubled teenager trying to find her place in life. I thought it was ok but kind of slow moving and boring in some parts. The problem is (of course, there must be a problem for there to be a book) that this girl, fourteen years of age, a boarder at an all girls school, will not speak. We learn throughout the course of the book that her father has hurt her in some way, not only mentally, but also physically, drastically scarring her face for life, which has forced her to lead a silent exsistence. She has a false relationship with her mother and we see how uncaring she is towards her daughter.
If you read this book, i don't think you're likely to forget it.
