I saw it at Target and was immediately intrigued even though I'm not in the target audience by a long shot. It fits in your memoir slot.

I haven't read loose girl. By the way, if you're working with at risk, low-literacy kids. Check out the Bluford Books from Townsend Press. You can buy them for $1 a piece from them, and they're absolute gems for that audience. Also look into the Orca Series. Finally there is a new one called Hip Books, but I haven't actually read any of them yet. They look promising. They're not great literature, but they are high interest and they will hook some kids on reading who have never read an actual book.
