American girls / Alison Umminger.

Summary:

Fifteen-year-old Anna has had it with her life at home. New stepparents, a new sibling, a new school...a person can take only so much. So Anna "borrows" her stepmom's credit card and runs away to Los Angeles, where her half sister, Delia, takes her in. But LA isn't quite the glamorous escape Anna imagined. As Anna spends her days on TV and movie sets watching Hollywood's D-list at work, she engrosses herself in a project researching the murderous Manson girls. And although the violence in her own life isn't the kind that leaves physical scars, she begins to notice the parallels between herself and the lost girls of LA, and of America, past and present. -- Provided by publisher.
