    <body><![CDATA[The Only Girl in the Car has much in common with Lucky. Both authors describe a rape in horrible excruciating detail, while at the same time writing about their families and their years growing up with great humor and affection.

The main character goes through a lot, but I couldn't manage to feel 100% sympathetic towards her because in the beginning of the book she kind of brought it on herself.

Dobie tells about her own coming-of-age as a young teenager.  It really makes you wonder about those girls we knew at 14 who were &quot;slutty&quot; or promiscuous.
