The House of Scorpion week one

I have been reading this for over a week right now and at first I didn't want to read the book when I got it bcause the summary sounded good but not the beginning of it. It is really good. There is this really mean lady that hates this boy. Her name is Rosa. She is so mean and I wish I could just slap her so hard! But this book is really great and I would suggest this for anybody.
