I am 70 years old and have read many books in my life but I have to say, this is the best and most fulfilling book I have ever read. It's about a girl who at the age of 13 starts to learn that life isn't the icing on a cupcake. The story is so believable I started to relate it to my own life. It's 465 pages long and I read it in five days. You won't regret taking a chance on "She's Come Undone".

Storyline

In this extraordinary coming-of-age odyssey, Wally Lamb invites us to hitch a wild ride on a journey of love, pain, and renewal with the most heartbreakingly comical heroine to come along in years.

Meet Dolores Price. She's 13, wise-mouthed but wounded, having bid her childhood goodbye. Stranded in front of her bedroom TV, she spends the next few years nourishing herself with the Mallomars, potato chips, and Pepsi her anxious mother supplies. When she finally orbits into young womanhood at 257 pounds, Dolores is no stronger and life is no kinder. But this time she's determined to rise to the occasion and give herself one more chance before she really goes under.
