Laurie Ann Smith takes the reader on a journey back to the "years in between." Those teenage years where children struggle to find themselves, to test the limits, test the boundaries and without even realizing it, find out just who they are and what they are made of. Those "years in between" are a struggle for many teens as they search for their own place within their own families and society. Many teens find themselves and make it through without too much damage. Many teens find themselves in a whole lot of trouble. Smith encourages every teen who reads this book to look for the goodness in this life. Her only hope is that any teen who reads this book and identifies with it, understands the pain of what it is to be abused, to know that their friends are being abused, or are using drugs and involved with substance abuse, will reach out for help.
