I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone. It shows inside the world of a young girl suffering form OCD. You see how she works and what she is feeling inside. It is really gripping!

This was a nice try in terms of trying to help people understand what a child's experience of OCD is like. I bought it in the hopes that I could recommend it to those children that I work with who have OCD, and their families. Unfortunately, I found the quality of writing so poor that I don't think I would recommend it to anyone. (Why does the main character have to "scream" and "have tears pouring down her cheeks" all - and I mean all - the time?) In addition, the book tries so hard to be a "teen" novel too (first kisses, boyfriends, best mates with anorexia) that it detracts from the point.
Perhaps it is just a bit too American, perhaps I am too old (!) but I thought it was obvious and irritating.

I think this book is a real eye-opener for parents and other concerned individuals who deal w/a child with OCD. I think it will help others understand the demons that one with OCD experiences and perhaps enlighten those that think that this is just a stage that someone is going through. Physicians and therapists would also benefit greatly from this book and perhaps better understand what OCD is really like. I intend to have all the grandparents, my husband, and anyone else who questions what my son lives with read this book (I may order a copy for each of them!)
