Burned, Ellen Hopkins

Book Review: I was in Barnes and Nobles just looking around and I picked this book up and I told my husband that I wanted it, so we bought it. I read it that night, I really enjoyed this book about a Mormon girl. I related to a lot of things she was going threw and the things she wanted to do. I thought it was a good read. I also loved the poetic way of writing in this book, it made it easier to read!
Book Synopsis:Raised in a stern, abusive Mormon household, a teenage girl starts to question her religion and struggles to find her destiny.

Her father is abusive, her mother is submissive, and her church looks the other way. Confused and angry, Pattyn Von Stratten acts out and is sent to live with an aunt on a Nevada ranch. She finds the love and acceptance she craves, with disturbing consequences.
