Sarah challenges this notion when, after flunking out of school, she decides to return to her hometown to try to gain a better understanding of what might be holding her back in life. Home is the hardest place for Sarah to teach herself to stop being a victim. But it is also likely the most important place to do it. She uses her newfound knowledge about herself to pull others out of similar crises, as love is rediscovered and friendship is borne out of adversity.</p><p><em>Angel Rock Leap</em> is riddled with lost and broken characters, each guilty of hurting those around them because they, themselves, hurt. This is an anti-bullying story that is Christian principle-based, with particular emphasis on the idea that hurting people hurt people.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><strong>D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review: </strong></p><p>Angel Rock Leap wraps a diverse selection of themes (alienation, bullying, <br /> and how victims turn tables to become something greater than their pain)<br /> into its story, and is a strong recommendation for fiction readers seeking<br /> emotional stories of protagonists who hover at the intersections of<br /> life-changing events and decisions.</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ellen Weisberg is a cancer researcher at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Principal Associate in Medicine at Harvard Medical School (Boston, MA), with a doctorate in pharmacology.
