I had to read hatchet, which comes close if I recall.

Hatchet was great! Still a favorite to this day! Sort of, MC was in a plane crash and has to do survival stuff and basically learn it all ad-libbed.

I had to read a book about rape in school called "Speak" it was pretty messed up and I don't think it had all that good an ending either
