Review
I loved this book because from cover to cover the sensitive way that the author covered the subjects of self-harm, brain injury, love and respect made it a book that I couldn’t put down. The characters and plot were really well developed and the characters were multi-faceted which meant that I was able to connect with them on several levels.
I wanted to read this book because I read one of this authors books earlier in the year and loved it, so I knew that I would likely enjoy this one to and I wasn’t disappointed. Having read this book now I know with out a doubt that this author has become a favourite for me so will not only be an auto read author but also an auto buy one as well from now on. The author will also be one who I will happily and eagerly recommend to others as well as buy it as a gift for anyone I know who I believe will enjoy reading it.
Jillian is a young woman who has dealt with the loss of her parents as a child and self-harming. After her parents death she moves in with her sister who lives next door to Griffin, who becomes her best friend and promises that he’ll never leave her. She goes to design college across the country and although she struggles with her self-confidence at times she works through it and graduates.
