IRB #1 Intro Post

While in the teen non-fiction section of Barnes & Noble, the book titled "Dear Nobody: The True Diary of Mary Rose" by Gillian McCain and Legs McNeil, caught my attention. The bright photo of a teenage girl gazing at a sunset, along with the back cover summary, made me choose this book. The summary sets the book up to be a drama-filled diary of a high school girl trying her best to fit in. Her life includes realistic topics such as drug-use and bullying, both of which I find interesting to read about. From reading this book over marking period 1, I hope to gain a different perspective from how my teenage eyes see the world everyday.
