Why read it?
2 authors picked Run Girl Run as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Some books keep you up all night, grab you by the throat, and don’t let go until the last page. This book is one. This heart-pounding, fast-paced page-turner holds nothing back and inserts readers face-first into the heart-wrenching reality of parental abuse and neglect.

From Susie's list on ordinary teens doing extraordinary things.
It’s a harsh world for Tracie. She reacts and behaves just like any teenager who thinks they know everything while the rest of the adult world around her is stupid. Then the horrible truth dawns.
