Cut





Cut is a book written by Patrcia McCormick who is also the author of other books that have what i call the same type of writting but about different things. It is about a girl named Callie, that has been cutting herself for sometime now. The cause of doing this has lead to her being admitted to a mental institution called sea pines. She doesnt talk during the first month or so at all a girl there gave her a nickname s.t. for silent treatment, she also called sea pines; sick minds. She does continue to cut for sum time through out the book even while she is in the institution. The girls sat by the same disordered people as them kind of like little groups which were the food issue girls which are the biggest mojority there (anorexic, and way over eating). The next dissordered group was the "druggies" or wat they call substance-abuse issues, then girls like Callie who are called assorted psychos. But she does get better once she starts talking and talking about her brother sam and how hes always sick and shes to blame for one time he had an attack. which causes her mom to be super protective and over clean and her dad is always at work or out and now hes really working to pay for her treatment. Once she realizes that not everyone hates her and the things she was blaming herself for and has an amazing talk with her dad she starts really working at getting better.
