This is a short YA book with a powerful punch. It’s the story of a young teen who is a survivor despite her neglectful and often absent Mother and the squalor they live in. Her love for her little brother and her passion for science keep her tethered to the goal of graduating with good grades so she can go to college and take care of her brother. This tackled some difficult subjects but the author did an amazing job, and I admit towards the end I shed a tear or two.
