Summary: Inspiring
Comment: I love this book by Ms. Sparks. Its something I believe every teenage girl should read at one point in time in her life. My aunt made me read this book when I was younger and I just fell in love with it. It's a very inspiring novel about the teenager.

Summary: Read It Happened To Nancy. Save A Life.
Comment: Nancy feels like she's alone and she feels like has no one to talk to, and some girls might feel like this in the type of situation Nancy's in. After Nancy tells her mom that she's been raped she gets a lot of help and most of the help comes from from her mom and most of her friends and family; young girls will get help if they confess in time. Collin takes advantage of Nancy when he's about to leave Nancy's house because he rapes her. Later she finds out she was infected with aids and that Collin is 27 yrs old. This book clarifies that things happen when they're least expected, but when they do happen you are not alone. there are people who can help you. When Nancy tells her mom she was raped and that impacts her mom drastically. She starts spending more time talking and taking care of Nancy.

Summary: Excellent
Comment: I read this book in eight grade english and I'm now a sophomore in college. This semster we were asked to make a list of all the books we have ever read and then name one of those that you still remember or is your favorite from the list. My list included The Glass Castle, Marquise of O, The Freedom Train, Hamelet(more of a play), The Merchant of Venice(again more of a play), The Dairy of Anne Frank, To Kill a Mockingbird, and It Happend to Nancy. When I looked at that list I just couldn't chose any of those books over It Happend to Nancy. It gave a realestic account of what it was like to be a teenager living with HIV/AIDS and diffenatley made me think twice before I made decision because for all I know I could've been Nancy or my sister could've been.

"... more spiritual than anything I had ever heard, even the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing the ..."
"... loud dissonant combo but . . . well, like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing the Hallelujah Chorus..."
These lines are from three different journals supposedly written by three entirely different real-life teenagers.
Er...supposedly...
If Beatrice wanted to write fiction, why didn't she just CALL it fiction?
