Helpful Score: 4
LIVING DEAD GIRL is immediately gripping; even the synopsis draws you in. From there, the story just builds and builds on you, a combination of the horrifying predicament that Alice is in and the spare, unapologetic language that Elizabeth Scott uses to strike a chord in readers. I think the greatest lesson I can take out of LIVING DEAD GIRL is that any abuse victim's psyche is fathomless. This book requires a patient and dedicated audience for its impact to be felt fully, but, when felt, will reverberate with you as strongly as Laurie Halse Anderson's SPEAK does.
