OLDER FICTION
(3) YA Overweight, socially ostracized teen Dell is already reeling from the erosion of all her support systems (broken family, distant friends, etc.) when she's raped by her former crush; she moves from food to pills to dull the pain. Compassionate and wrenching, this hard-hitting problem novel contains few surprises but evokes Dell's rage, grief, and ultimate suicidal despair with breathtaking intensity.
