So I am almost done with "She's Come Undone" by Wally Lamb. I've read two of his other books...and I think that this may be in the running for one of my favorites from him. I really enjoyed "This Much I know is True" and this book was just as good. If you're interested you can read some parts of the book at Google Books.

Whats the plot? Well its about the life of a girl - Dolores Price and the struggles of growing up through various traumatic experiences - divorce, rape, death, mental instability...I mean you name it and she's had to deal with it.

As you read the book you wonder - can she get a break or what?! You start rooting for her as she struggles to get herself together....I haven't finished the book but I'm almost there. Whether Dolores succeeds or continues on a downward spiral I can't be sure but I'll be happy with this book either way.

HEY!!! I actually read this book a long, long, long time ago back in high school... I don't remember what happened, but I think I liked it. Ha! Yeah - and that's why I don't join book clubs anymore. - Shauna
