The Murderers Daughters by Randy Susan Myers. Pretty much is one of those books that is good yet so hurtful at the same time. Merry and Lulu are 9 and 5, living in their mother's apartment and doing everything she asks of them considering she blames for her life going to hell. Their father and mother have had a falling out. Their father is head over heels in love with their mother and she wants nothing to do with him considering she only married him because he got her knocked up with Merry at such a young age. One day their father comes over drunk off his behind and their mother has told them everyday, NOT to let their father in--Merry does it anyways, which is going to haunt her for the rest of her life considering her father kills their mother and while she is running to get help, stabs Lulu, her baby sister, in the chest. I believe this book is one of the best hard books to read because most people haven't gone through this and if you let yourself into their lives, your setting yourself up for heartbreak. I recommend this to anyone, especially since my mom told me to read this and we usually have totally different tastes when it comes to books.
