How could Young Ju accomplish so well when she had a such abusive father? It needed more details in order to convince us.

No, I would not recommend you to read the book since I was not comfortable while reading the book with the following reasons.

Young Ju, the main character, lied big lies without suffering from guilty feelings; the first big lie saying her brother had died was not exposed and it led the second big lie that she pretended to be from a rich family. Somewhere else Young Ju was described to wear sneakers with a hole, so how could the best friend, Amanda and her parents not notice it? A girl who cheats her class mates and best friend cannot be said to be successful simply because she did very well in academic areas.(less)
