I read this book a few years ago. I was stunned when I learned the real struggle of being on the street, especially in a big city. This book will definitely hold your attention. It is honest, raw, and sad. It is always a relief when the person is still around to write about it though. I told the author how much I liked her book and she actually replied, which I thought was pretty cool. For anyone looking for first-hand insight on what its like to be a homeless addict, I recommend this book. I think it is good to know that these are real people, and this is exactly the type of book that can shed light on the real problems so many teens face here in the U.S. A great read.
