"Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson

There are probably some parents out there that wouldn't want there kids to read this book. I feel as though she wrote it really good, being what it is about. It would be a good book for someone to read that has gone through the same things (being sexually abused or raped), and it definitely doesn't go into details about this. It just goes through her thoughts and feelings about herself and what happened for the following year. I probably wouldn't have my kids read it until they are old enough to understand this sort of stuff and that is entirely up to the parents' when that is. I really enjoyed this book and had a really hard time putting it down to do other stuff. The way she wrote it almost makes it to where it seems like you are seeing what is happening instead of reading it.
