I've been following Donna Carrick on twitter for a while now and leapt at the chance to pick up this book of short stories free on Smashwords.

I'm glad I did because I thoroughly enjoyed the whole book, Each story is gripping, delving deep into the psyches of her young protagonists,
One thing I did have trouble with was keeping the stories separate, as all of them were written in first person, often by a young girl, and many have similar backgrounds, such as an abusive father and/or a younger sister, so I had to stop in between each story to remind myself that it was a new set of characters.
You probably will not face this problem if you don't read it all in one sitting as I did, Aside from the fact that I adore Donna Carrick's writing style, this was a nice collection of short stories, They felt like stories one would tell over a cup of coffee with a friend, the descriptions of the scenery told in such a way to feel as if I were right there beside the narrator.
