Helpful Score: 2
I'm not sure what to rate this book. The writing style made me feel as if Ruthie was in the room speaking. However, it felt like an overheard conversation on the bus or maybe in a waiting room. I was not very interested but listened for lack of something else to do. I skipped throughout the book. The book is about how she is raised by a grandfather so abusive he killed his wife and how she overcomes and forms her own family.
