5.0 out of 5 stars Cuts to the bone Nov 19 2004
By Bradley Wallace
Format:Paperback
I'm always attracted to authors who don't shy away from difficult subject. Perrotta is one, and Jackson McCrae also comes to mind with his "Children's Corner" (one story in particular "Early Sunday Morning" deals with self-mutilation), but what makes CUT stand out for me is the incredible depth and insight the author pulls into the tale.
Callie is a 15-year old girl who has a big feeling of guilt building up inside of her. This feeling of guilt started when her brother came down with an illness and for some reason Callie Blames herself. She, on her own, decides she needs to be punished and the punishment is so severe that she wants to take her life. With this, what Callie does not realize is that she's not cutting herself to be punished but cutting herself in response to her dysfunctional family. While you may not warm to the idea of reading a book about this particular subject, the author does one heck of a job in making this readable and riveting.

Also recommended: THE CHILDREN'S CORNER by Jackson MCcrae

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected April 30 2013
By S. Gatien TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Although the author did a good job describing the mental issue, it felt as if she didn't understand it herself and kind of copy/pasted from a textbook. Lacks depth but still was an interesting read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for me Jan 11 2013
By Book Cupid
Format:Paperback
Short and questionable. A day after finishing this book I still wonder what it all meant. I admit I've never cut myself or ended up in a recovery center, but I'm sure that those who do, have more layers of depth than Callie.

1.0 out of 5 stars Stereotypes Off The Port Bow!
I found this book contrived even when I read it as 14/15- year- old cutter. The characters the situations are all simply stereotypes that kids will try to find themselves in. Read more
