This is a story about a girl Ruby, who lived in a dysfunctional family where mother was drunkard. Ruby didn't complain about life, she was just trying to live and survive. She had no idea that her life can change in one day.
One day her mother left, Ruby used to the fact that the mother can not go back, but tall differently. Ruby was alone, she continued working, she turned to live like one, but once social workers learned about her situation and taken her to a shelter. She was taken away by sister, who was able to change her life, she now lives with her husband in a posh house, and there is and needs nothing. In the beginning Ruby could not get used to the new life. She found new friends, betrayed by old and moved to the new elite school.
She began working at a jewelry store, became friends with a neighbor boy Nate, then she liked it. Nate had problems with his father, Ruby wanted to help, but her efforts were rejected, but she was able to help him at the end of the book, Nate went to his mother, Ruby missed him, but they communicated in a social network, which was created by the husband of Cora, her sisters.
I liked the book, it is normal, but to be honest after reading it I didn't feel anything. This book is somehow about nothing. Just I certainly understand that Ruby was a difficult life and all that, but in this book as that all daily. It's like you just read someone's life. I think that in this book there is no story. Just Ruby's life. There wasn't some interesting moments. If you ask me what about this book, I would not even know what to say .... just about Ruby, the schoolgirl. This book in the second time I didn't read.
