"I really loved Wally! She was strongwilled, determined, and a survivor. Even in the face of death, she still fought for her loved ones and never gave up. Her journey was a sad and hard one. Her friends were lovable and the story line was exciting and fast paced."

— Rachelia, 4/20/2013" This is probably the best book I have read in awhile. Normally, I don't like books that aren't fantasy, but this book was amazing even though it took place in the real world! It is so different from all of the other books I usually read, and I just love it. "
