Cut by Patricia McCormick




Cut. Run. Cut. Run. That's what 15 year old Callie's mind does before Sea Pines, aka Sick Minds has even been a suggestion for her. Her brother, Sam, her cat Linus, her mother and her father are home, waiting for her. While she watches girls with, eating disorders, acholhol and drug addictions, make bonds and frienships.

'Cut' is a realistic fiction story about a 15 year old girl named Callie who cuts herself. She was a trackrunner, and an older sister to her sick brother, Sam. Sam has terrible asthma, he has horrendous attacks. Anyways, while at the loony bin,(Called Sea Pines but patients call it Sick Minds) Callie decides not to talk. Not to her roomate, not to the group therapist, Cynthia, not to her counselor, which messes with the other patients heads'. The other patients are Debbie, Tara, Tiffany, Syndney, and the new cutter, Amanda. But then Callie starts to talk to everyone. Read about the drama going on at Sick Minds.

This book was vivid, inspiring novel, riveting, and a mind-blowing story of mental pain. The story is told in first-peron. Callie adresses her counselor in her mind as you. That is what makes the book unique. I would reccomend this to Wintergirls fans. I'd rate this 5/5. READ IT!!!
