Speak was astonishing and took my breath away in its ability to really get into the head of an adolecent girl. Despite the dead serious theme , the book was actually laugh aloud funny. The school year structure and the main characters running commentary on the various cliques within the school created a very real back drop for her own struggle to survive.
