I found Girls With Bright Futures addictive. I started reading it and couldn't put it down in the less than 3 days it took me to finish it. I was surprised by the twists and turns throughout the book. Very intriguing. As a retired senior high school counselor in a large urban area I could had never imagined such deceitful and devious behavior by parents (and I experienced a lot of unusual behavior!). Loved the book!
