Journal #9: Ophelia Speaks

Ophelia Speaks is a coming of age novel because in each chapter different girls talk about their adolescent stage in different stories. They then learn about their mistakes and make sure no one else will make the same mistake as they did. In the book there are different topics such as pregnancy, parents, siblings, annorexia, media images, etc. The book spoke to me and I think it can speak to other teenage girls so they know that others have an idea of what they're going through.
