Summary Of This Book :
As a child, Dave Pelzer was brutally beaten and starved by his emotionally unstable, alcoholic mother, a mother who played tortuous, unpredictable, games that left one of son nearly dead. She no longer considered him a son, but a slave; no longer a boy, but an 'it'. His bed was an old army cot in the basement, his clothes were torn and smelly, and, when he was allowed the luxury of food it was scraps from the dogs' bowl. The outside world knew nothing of the nightmare played behind closed doors.

This book is a story that cannot fail to move. It talks about being strong during tough time and how to overcome.

Summary of This Book :
Becky Bloomwood has what most twenty-five-year-olds only dream of: a flat in London's trendiest neighborhood, a troupe of glamorous socialite friends, and a closet brimming with the season's must-haves. The only trouble is that she cannot afford it --- not any of it. her job not only bores her to tears, it doesn't pay her much at all. Still, how can she resist that perfect pair of shoes? Or the divine silk blouse in the window of that ultra-trendy boutique? But lately Becky's been chased by dismal letters from Visa and the Endwich Bank --- Letter with large red sums she can't bear to read and they're getting ever harder to ignore!
What We Think of This Book :
This book really makes you feel nervous for Becky as she unfolds every single letter she receives from the bank! She has to rack her brains to think up of as many excuses as she can to lie to the bank as to why she did not pay her debts.
