Book: Ugly





Summary: Constance's mother systematically abused her daughter throughout her childhood. Regularly beaten and starved, she tried to get herself taken into care without success and even drank bleach. When she was 13, her mother left her to fend for herself but Constance found the courage to survive and this is her story.

What I thought: Great read - yet very sad. Would be interesting to hear what her sisters say of their upbringing too.
