This was a hard book for
me to read. It took me several days to read this book. This book is intended
for grades 10- 12. People that like
this book might enjoy Keeping You a
Secret by Julie Anne Peters and Miseducation
of Cameron Post by Emily M. Danforth. Books like this one can give young
girls the courage to except how they feel. Liza is at war with how she
feels and what she thinks she should feel. Liza Winthrop and Annie Kenyon meet at the museum and quickly become friends. Their relationship deepens turns into more than friendship.
