Read common sense media's white oleander review, age rating, and parents guide. White oleander is a painfully beautiful first novel about a young girl growing up the hard way. The unforgettable story of a young woman's odyssey through a series of los angeles foster homes on her journey to redemption.
So i read it again.
I felt fitch did a good job creating the main character, astrid, but she would of been better if she did more rebellious things in each foster home she went to, also if the book had more oh my gosh moments for example if she ran away, or her mom never got out of jail.
