Publisher Description

Now a movie on Lifetime!
I was thirteen when my dad caught me with Tommy Webber in the back of Tommy's Buick, parked next to the old Chart House down in Montara at eleven o'clock on a Tuesday night. Tommy was seventeen and the supposed friend of my brother, Darren.
I didn't love him.
I'm not sure I even liked him.


In a moment, Deanna Lambert's teenage life is changed forever. Struggling to overcome the lasting repercussions and the stifling role of "school slut," Deanna longs to escape a life defined by her past. With subtle grace, complicated wisdom, and striking emotion, Story of a Girl reminds us of our human capacity for resilience, epiphany, and redemption.

The Story of a Girl

This book is amazing.
“Sometimes rescue comes to you.
It just shows up, and you do nothing.
Maybe you deserve it, maybe you don’t.
But be ready, when it comes,
to decide if you will take the outstretched hand
and let it pull you ashore.”

-Excerpt From: Zarr, Sara. “Story of a Girl.” Little Brown, Books for Young Readers, 2008-03-01.

One of the best books out there

I first read this when I was 13 in 8th grade. Now I'm about to graduate highschool and this story has still stayed with me. It's a great freaking book.
