Recently Read #10

I went to texas over break, and on the way, I read a book called Almost Home. This book is by Jessica Blank, and it's about a bunch of kids living on the streets of LA. All the kids are different types of runaways running from different things, like sexual abuse, parents abusing them, and just wanting to leave. You get to hear perspectives of all the teenagers and they all come from different backgrounds. I thought this book was really good, the stories were based on real stories, and it was interesting and scary to see what some people face.
