pickThis was often a tough book to read, about a 13 year old Nepali girl sold into prostitution in India. McCormick does an amazing job of describing how horribly Lakshmi is treated while also refraining from being excessively explicit. Lakshmi faces these circumstances with her mother‘s words that to endure is to triumph and never fully gives up hope.

pickThe tenth most banned book in America this past year is a skillfully and sensitively told story, based on interviews with real survivors, of a 13 year old Nepali girl sold by her stepfather into prostitution in India. This important, inspiring, and very moving book, published in 2006 to critical acclaim, exemplifies the words Lakshmi‘s beloved mother tells her, “Simply to endure…is to triumph,” and celebrates survival, love of learning, and hope.
pickThere wasn‘t a whole lot of depth in this dark romance but it did leave me wanting to know what happens next even though I think I know, so I did buy the next book to see. It wasn‘t terrible, but definitely not a five star read for me. Super steamy scenes and I liked the FMC so I will be interested to read the next one.
