Having watched my daughter and two of her friends complete the challenge last year, I've been inspired to join in. Some of the books that were read by her were so interesting I read them too, so I've already been taking part unofficially anyway! This should be fun.

Not realy. Still... gave it 3 stars (think I get a tad generous at times). I did a review which sums up my feelings.

I found it quite interesting though rather shocking too.
Surfice to say, she wont be winning any Mother of the Year Awards soon. Nor Daughter for that matter.
