Review:

"Screwed" by Laurie Plissner was a contemporary YA romance read that was a real  touchy subject but well written by this author.  We find that this young lady is pregnant in HS that turns into a horrible nightmare for her.  Grace is shunned not only by the boy that had gotten her  pregnant her but also her 'god fearing parents.'  Grace's parents demanded that she get an abortion and all hell breaks out when she refuses to do so.  Then as the story goes on a neighbor who Grace did not really know gives her a place to live.  This person evens offers her 'support that her parents did not give to her.'  Now, to get more of this story and how this author will bring it all out to the reader you must pick up "Screwed" to see for yourself.  Thank God for friends like Charlie and Jennifer  that were their for Grace.  This was some courageous young lady that had in the end been blessed with some wonderful friends and to know that 'there is always someone out their that's willing to help you.'

 'Screwed" is definitely a page turning that once you start reading you will know want to put it down until the very end. This is a read that a lots of teenagers have had to face and I would definitely would  recommend to book to all teens to read.
