Martha, the youngest daughter of fanatically religious parents, is all too aware that her family is unusual. Taunted and bullied at school, and lonely at home, with only postcards from her elder sister to keep her sane, Martha knows there has to be some other way of living. But it is only when she is befriended by the new boy, Scott, that she decides to reveal the terrible secret that has so far kept her in emotional chains.

"This was probably one of my favourite books when I was 12 or 13. I must have read it at least three times back then. It's not a kind of book I would like to read now though, I was a dark child back then and now I'm more into happy stuff ;)" — Lanaia (5 out of 5 stars)
