While I'm Falling

This book is about a college age girl who is a RA in the dorms as well as trying to get the grades to achieve med school and failing horribly. While all this goes on her family is falling apart, her mother becomes homeless, a few additional unfrotunate occurences happen and basically you just think wow this girl has a shit life. But above the slightly feeling sorry for the girl and her homeless mom you just kind of think wow this girl isn't standing up for herself or doing anything specific to change the circumstances. Over all I guess I just read it and ended reading it feeling very blah. Moriarty has much better books out there.
