Amber captures the reader with her thoughts, emotions and the challenges of growing up. Her descriptive, direct, and honest writing, (well beyond her young age), brings you into her world where anyone can identify with her experiences and the struggle to find themselves and where they fit in.
An extraordinary book written by an extraordinary young woman. You will learn so much about young adults and their inner thoughts when you read this. Highly recommend to young adults, and parents and adults who want to more deeply connect with the young adults in their lives. Just beautiful.
This book is an actual journal giving us a glimpse into the life of a talented and eloquent young middle-schooler. Her insights are far greater than her years - especially as she discusses the lure of social media and the impact it had on her relationships and school work. I highly recommend!
