Book review: “All Out of Pretty”
October 21, 2022
“All Out of Pretty is a novel written by Ingrid Palmer. In the book, she writes about a teenage girl named Andrea and how she learns to fend for herself with no adults around besides her drug addict mother and abusive boyfriend. It’s the first book I’ve read in a really long time and I honestly didn’t expect much from it. However, after finishing it, it has become one of my favorite novels. This book is so beautifully written. It’s hard to relate to the characters but through the author’s words, you can really feel for them. It’s definitely a book I recommend.

I know a lot of the students, so that makes it a little bit easier coming from Cabrillo, and it's been nice to see them all grown up."
