She also quoted "every time I'm going through hard time or going through same thing over and over, I always end up reading my own story because I feel relief in the end and it reminds me to not feel helpless, or hopeless. it always made me stronger in the end. No matter what I'll always end up reading my own book" so as she always end up reading her book, it sounds like the book is like her personal diary. Finally she improved, she got better and now she's happy with her "personal diary" and her life. In the book named Willow, the main character is named Willow, on rainy march night, her parents drank too much that they asked Willow to drive them home but they didn't make it, Willow ended up losing control of the car and her
