"I am. And you're the kind of girl that believes in the reality of here and now." "When you're pregnant and living with your brother and his wife, reality seems like a safer place to stay." Suzanne Quincy was raised by an abusive mother and an apathetic father. In an effort to escape her upbringing, Suzie chooses the numbing effects of drugs and alcohol--and the accompanying lifestyle. She reaches a crossroad when she discovers she is pregnant. Will she listen to the world and abort the baby, or will she listen to the conscience she has ignored her entire life? The choice she makes sends her down a path of self-discovery. This story is about choices and consequences, laughter and tears, and finding the truth in the midst of it all. 1948511 1 10 2005 My Not-So-Fairy-Tale Life total:253|5:86|4:90|3:62|2:10|1:5| 253 1001 390 78 4 3 false false Sun Apr 05 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Jan 10 13:51:24 -0800 2009 Thu Apr 09 09:44:02 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 1 false false Fri Apr 17 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jan 09 22:16:55 -0800 2009 Fri Apr 17 14:57:29 -0700 2009 hardest review I've done so far.
