This book is interesting to me because of the drama and the effect every thought has on the outcomes of what happens next. I wondered if her dad didn't leave that maybe things would've turned out differently and that maybe her and her sister might have had a better life instead of the one they are living now. Ever since their dad left Ellie and her sister have been struggling, because their mother is very abusive, and she believes that the girls ruined her life.I noticed that neither of the two girls really want to be living with their mother, but ever since their dad left them they never really had a choice. What if their dad would have stayed and their mom would have left, would things have been different.

Things for Ellie have been hard the only good things in her life are her sister Gwen, her friend Celia, and the new guy in the neighborhood Leo. The thing is Ellie thinks she's in love with Leo, he's to old for her, her best friend is off to camp, and her sister just got charged for a major crime which she really did commit. Ellie's whole world is turning upside down and she thinks that the only person who can help her is Leo, when the truth is that the only person who can truly help her is herself.
