Out of My Mind by Sharon M. Draper
4.0

Like Rules by Cynthia Lord [b:Rules|222458|Rules|Cynthia Lord|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1286554843s/222458.jpg|1139031]every teacher and student should read this book. I'm now on the search for a strong male character to compliment these books.

There was one point close to the end that I felt didn't really need to be in the book. The girl had already suffered a lot and as I was reading this particular section I thought "Does she really need to experience this too?" It just felt like one more set back. That kept it from being 5 stars.
