Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Kaiti

WOW is about all i have to say about this book. Im a 14 year old that reads constantly and although i am hardly without a book, this one was by my side for the whole 2 days it took me to read it! (yeah i know a long time eh?)

This book not only was an interesting coming of age story of a young girl, it more then interested me in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire. The way that Mary Jane wrote the girls experience in the fire was more then amazing. I mean, basically everyone has heard of the Triangle Shirtwaist Facory Fire, and maybe even gone over it in a history class or two, but the way she told the story of what happened to her that saturday on the ninth floor was as if you were really there, really her, the whole heartbreaking story just sinks into your heart in an unbelievable way.

I can't put into words the emotions this book made me feel, and i can't wait to read more by Mary Jane!
