Damaged Immediately


Jodie's story is interesting and heartbreaking and Cathy Glass is an adequate writer. Unfortunately, she's "tells" as opposed to "shows" and the book suffers for the dry, removed style of her writing.

Instead of relating incidences in Jodie's life as they happen, she relates them in the past tense, which lessens the dramatic structure of the book.

More use of adjectives and color would have helped the book tremendously.Get more detail about Damaged.
