Unbelievable author; disturbing, funny, heartbreaking -- how this author gets into the head of an adolescent girl, I don't know. A must read.

This is, hands-down, my favorite book ever! Told in first person, you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll feel like you REALLY know Dolores and everyone she encounters. Wally Lamb has an amazing way of writing so you can see, feel, taste, smell the environment! It's painful, it's heart-wrenching, it's uplifting...it's just the best book I've ever read (and that's saying something).

As much as I LOVE PBS, you will never see this book posted by me - I love it too much!

I loved this so much I read this multiple times. Told in first person, Dolores Price (the main character) is so heartbreaking and believable I had to keep looking at the cover to remind myself that a man wrote this book. That's how convincing the writer is. You will love this book!

An excellent read, and quite profound in it's insights, but if you don't like reading about the perils of dysfunctional family systems or graphic sexual abuse than you most likely will not enjoy this book.

Good ending and one you will enjoy.

This was the first book by Wally Lamb I read. It was so sad, sometimes hard to read and I almost felt dirty by the end. But I think that's what makes a book so wonderful...when it draws you in and touches all those things you weren't expecting. Gread read.
