My favorite character is Lisa. The way she beat Lisa Cody with her history was really funny. The way Lisa acts is really intriguing. Makes you wonder what happened in her life.

The first time i read Girl, Interrupted i could barely put it down. It has so much depth its words literally drown you into them.

I really love this book Girl Interrupted and to be honest that was the first book I actually sat down and read the whole thing I really which I saw the movie. Now I have to write a report on it or least one other main character besides Susanna Kaysen and I seemto need help on that maybe you guys can give me an idea on who to write about and how I should write about that person. You can email me at glinton@email.com

I was wondering if anybody has any information on the real Daisy Randone? She was my favorite character, she had me so intrigued and I wish I knew more about her and how she became so confused, if it was circumnstances in her life or if she was just born that way. my email address is seek2findme2002@yahoo.com. Thanks

I was inspired by susana's story to better myself because of the situations i face in life. I found that we are so alike in so many ways and in experiences that have happened to me. I love her attitude she has when stepping into the situation and leaving it. I sheds new hope on what my future can be.
