Book Reviews of Cut
Book Review: A Real-Life Story
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a book that really shows what a person who cuts themself can be thinking. I used to cut myself. I started when I was twelve years old. I'm not proud of it, but it gave me insight on things. This book is really good for... well, describing what it's like to have the need to cut yourself, and what it can do to you. I had a very similar experience to Callie's, except that Callie was 15 and I was 14. Anyway, you came here to read a review, not me yakking on about my meaningless life.Cut is a really good book about a girl named Callie who cuts herself (hence the title). She is in an institution, and she doesn't talk. The other girls talk, the girls with eating disorders and drug abuse, that sort of thing. Then a new girl comes, with the same problem that Callie has, except that Amanda, the new girl, shows off her scars with pride. This starts an emotional trip for Callie, and you, as the reader, follow her through every step of the way.
Book Review: A Wonderful Novel.....It Changed My Life...Truly
Summary: 5 Stars
I thought this novel was one of the greatest books I have ever read. I read an awful lot, and I don't think any book I've read yet can compare with this book. It really changed my life. When I got mad at myself or got sad or frustrated, I cut myself as well. Not enough to draw alot of blood, but just enough to make a deep sratch. After I read this book, I stopped doing this to myself. This book changed my life.....truly.Book Review: A book I could really relate to
Summary: 5 Stars
Once I started this book, I could not put it down. Without saying too much about my personal life, I was really able to relate to a lot of this book. For any young adult going through any tough times, I reccomend this...definately!Book Review: A book thaat will help you through some hard times.

Summary: 5 Stars
Cut by Patricia McCormick was an excellent read. Stress. Piercing pain, slicing, stabbing. This is what callie feels,when everything around her starts to pile up, she decides to slit her wrists as a way of relieving the pain bottled up inside her. Her mother finds out and sends her to Sea Pines, a correctional facility. This book leads you through her route of self discovery there. You feel like you are there and you just want to help her but you can't, and you can almost hear Callie's voice trying to break through. It's happy but sad at the same time and this book helped me realize a lot of things about my own life. I think Mccmormick was trying to send a message to mainly teenage girls about the consequences of slitting or the hardships of self destruction. This book was written really well and it kept you guessing and hoping for more and it teaches you a great lesson so that is why I enjoyed it.
