If You Find Me by Emily Murdoch
4.0
I really enjoyed this YA novel, read it it one day. It's the story of two sisters, 14 & 5. They've been living in an old camper in the middle of the woods with their mother, a meth addict for years. The book starts as they are found by a social worker and their father. They then have to learn to adjust to the real world of school and a family and deal with their past. I don't think my description does it justice - some others here on GR are much better.
I really thought the heroine, Carey was well written, interesting and tough. I think that it's definitely more for high schoolers, would be too much for middle schoolers. The girls life in the woods was hard and there was some sexual abuse that would be too much for younger readers.
