Jackson writes characters that stick with you. I felt emotionally attached to Claudia, a middle schooler, who lost her best friend. As with any child she begins trying to find her, and a story of child abuse, child neglect, and mental illness ensues. Such a powerful, but triggering book.
Graphic: Child abuse, Child death, Emotional abuse, Mental illness, and Murder
