Well there's a little stab of memory for me in this book too, as her boyfriend tells her she often smells like rotted plants because her house does. I'd once been told I sometimes smelled bad, and in retrospect it was probably due to the dust and thick smoke of my parents house.

The description says she was raised by "survivalists" but it would be more accurate to call them Paranoid Religious. A desire to survive without the government was only a symptom. Fear of Illuminati? Skin above the ankle is immodest? Dancing in a leotard in a sin?
