Summary: It Happened to Nancy
Review: This book was the most important book that I have ever read. It has made me laugh and cry. I would recommend it to anyone. The one thing that I wish that I had not done was read the back of the book. I think that it is better not knowing that she is going to be raed and have AIDS. I think that any teenage girl can relate to the way that Nancy acts in the begining, the way she gets all excited about little things that we all do. I had to laugh when she would just say something and I would think, 'I say that all the time.' At some parts I would feel as though I was Nancy. I was scared with her and I cried with her. But then I would feel like a friend, as I tried to give her advice. I am actually half way through the book and I can not put it down. I can not stand not knowing what is going to happen with her and everyone around her. This book will not let go when you put it down. It takes a little while to "recover" from its sadness. I will say it again, you need to read this book!

Summary: It could happend to anyone! My book review
Review: It happened to Nancy

My book, "It happened to Nancy" was a very touching story. It is a true tale from an anonymous teenager's diary. She was an innocent fourteen years old when she fell in love for the first time. Collin was a college student; he date-raped her and left her infected with the HIV virus. When I was reading this book, I could feel Nancy's pain and struggles she faced dealing with Aids. I am so proud of her and how she dealt with her situation. This book really moved me. I learned a lot from her experience. I've enjoyed reading this book. It was easy to understand. I was absorbed throughout out the book. I definitely recommend this book to all teenagers. It is truly amazing how much you will learn from someone's experience. At the same time this book is educational. It contains all kinds of questions and answers about rape, this may help people understand better in dealing with situations like Nancy's.It happened to Nancy

Summary: It Could Happen To You Too!
Review: Most teenage girls do not think that they could be or would be raped. That is exactly what Nancy thought, until it happened to Nancy. One night Nancy was at a concert, tripped and had an asthma attack. That's when the wonderful and charming Collin came along and saved her, or so she thought. The night came when she could be alone with Collin in her house. That night, Collin got her drunk and forced Nancy in her mother's bed. Although Nancy was screaming and crying, no one was there to help her and Nancy was raped. About three months after Nancy was raped, she was infected with the HIV-AIDS virus. Nancy was a very brave and special teenager who battles her way throught the HIV-AIDS virus with a weekened immune system. The one thing that is noticed in the book is Nancy's emotions. In her diary she tells about all of her feelings and her point of view on many subjects. It Happened To Nancy is a book that can change people's decisions on how they act as a teenager or a young adult. This book helps you to realize how serious rape is. Rape can not only hurt or change a person's life, but it can kill someone as well. This book is very emotional and touching, and would be enjoyed by someone who like to read about true stories on peoples' lives.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: it happened to nancy a sad story
Review: my review about this book was it was a sad story and it is a great book also. It has a very useful moral threw out the story.Ilove the very useful paragrahs how they were very detailed word by word. The realistic thoughts were very useful to understand the book. i THINK IT WAS SAD WHEN everyone new she had aids. Collin was a very stupid man he could have done somthing better with his life. He should not prey on girls. I think she shouldn't have gone with collin after the concert she should have stayed at the theature and not move. I would recomend this book to aperson who doesnt care and thinks everybody is clean and safe because the moral is that "dont think it is always your fault" Ilove how the author wrote so distinc and clear. Thats what I think about this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Realistic
Review: This book is something that all teenage girls should read. What happened to Nancy is something that could most certainly happen to any girl. We should be aware of who we know and learn that trust is not given, it's earned. IT HAPPENED TO NANCY is realistic and an awakening to all girls who think they are "in love".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THIS BOOK IS SO DRAMATIC!!!!
Review: This is a very heartwarming, yet tragic story. It made me realize that no matter how sweet someone can be you can never really trust them. There will always be something mysterious about them. After Nancy was infected with AIDS, she admitted that she knew she was going to die soon, which for others that can be the number one thing to admit. No one wants to die. So she decided to live life to its fullest, accomplishing everything she always dreamed of in the last two years of her life. She was too young to die, and it made me think twice before taking any action. Another plus, this story is written in diary form, which makes it easy to follow, and understand, and keeps your attention to keep reading. Every young girl should read this story, it will change your view about many things. And it will definitely touch your heart. Be ready with a box of tissues!!

Rating: 5 stars
