My Thoughts
From the first page I absolutely loved this book. The characters are so vibrant that I felt I was standing in the same room as them watching the story unfold in front of my eyes. I always think that this is a key to a great book.
Throughout this book I was thinking to myself how would I survive if tragedy hit my family like this. Would I retreat into myself and begin to ignore the world around me or would I keep hope that I would come through this a stronger person. I eventually realised that in this situation you can never know how you are going to react until you are faced with it.
All the way through this book I was cheering for Samantha not to give up hope and keep pushing through life as eventually you will find someone that will stick with you through thick and thin.
This book I feel will show everyone who reads it that no matter what life throws at you, you should never give up hope because one day you will find the person that will help you make sense of life again.
I received this book for free by the author and all opinions given are my own based by my reading of the novel.
