Autumn's father, who had walked away from his family a while ago, leaving them to fend for themselves, is now back in their lives and trying to make amends. When Autumn's mom is released from the hospital, she still needs help, so Autumn's dad moves back home.
Can Autumn ever forgive her father for leaving his family in the first place, or will she continue to be angry and resentful? Is it possible for her to trust any man, including her devoted boyfriend?

[Jennie · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a book about a native American girl who has dyslexia. Her mother and brother were hurt by a passing car and the story takes place mostly in the hospital. Autumn‘s father and mother are divorced but since the accident the father has been very worried about his ex-wife and as the story progresses he moves back into their home. Autumn hast to forgive him for leaving them in the first place and it is very hard for her to do. The story also touches on a group of mean girls that are not very nice to Autumn. It is a very short book only 100 pages but I did not find it to be very interesting.
