Angie is over-modest about her attractiveness and determination to make something of her life. From poverty in Grimsby, she is now in her tenth year as director of the Miss England pageant. I felt huge admiration for her personal and business achievements, especially with such tremendous odds stacked against her. It's just that in a book, I think you need to be prepared to bare all your emotions in public, and that's another story.
On the biographical tack, I'd recommend [[Bipolar Parent by Anna Burley]], and [[Run, Mummy, Run by Cathy Glass]]. Fictionally speaking, for teens [[A Good Clean Edge by Vincent CaldayCaldey]] and ''Picture Perfect'' by Jodie Picoult deal with these difficult themes. {{amazontext|amazon=0718158318}} {{waterstonestext|waterstones=8654983}}
