yes myself personal came from that kind of life, THank god mine was different on how i started this type of profession.At 13 i left home for a few years me and my only trustworthy frien would steal from store and resell but that is criminal, and the money that the Working Girls didn't even compare. So I decided i was in the wrong business. And started the sex trade... In the 80s in just a few hours i could make $ 2000.00-- $3000.00. But i saw alot of those same cituation that the wriiter is writting about Too..IT SO UNBELEIVABLE TO BE AROUND TOO>

Excellent book. Sadly all too true of what the life of a runaway could end up being and the tactics /mind games /drugging that pimps/creeps do to keep them in that life, . Every teen that thinks they have a hard life should read this and realize their life is a cakewalk compared to what it could be. Recommend this book for all teen girls and actually anyone .
And it also makes one think , about how the policeman , the dentist , the doctor, your neighbor that appears so upright and good could be hiding a horrible truth about the exploitation , the abuse , rape of innocent children , and then go home to their loved ones as though they did nothing wrong ! POWERFUL story , very well written .

i'TS A GOOD BOOK.

It's unfortunate that this situation is still all too true. Set in Vancouver's lower east side, this book in verse really kept my attention.

This book was beautifly written. I love the simplicity in the way the author wrote as it made the main character seem so much more real and vunrable.This book toyed with my emotions and was yet another White Pine book that had me in tears.

it wasnt what i expected it to be, however i found it quite interesting. it was a little depressing but it had to be to get the point across.

Compared to others, it was an okay book. I didn't enjoy the way the layout was, but it was interesting to read.

I thought it was well written but I found it very depressing and hard to read for that fact.

I loved this book. The way it's written is in a poetry layout but it reads just like a book. I found the ending kind of unfinished but other than that it was a great read! Glad I read it. :)

Great book. Interesting style of writing.The ending was confusing, though. Many questions rised up in the last few pages. The characters are also.... Interesting.
