A story about friendship, survival and finding your voice
Growing up, Mallory Dodge learned that the best way to survive was to say nothing. And even though it's been four years since her nightmare ended, she's beginning to worry that the fear that holds her back will last a lifetime. Now, after years of homeschooling, Mallory must face a new milestone—spending her senior year at a public high school. But she never imagined she'd run into Rider Stark, the friend and protector she hasn't seen since childhood, on her very first day.
It doesn't take long for Mallory to realize that the connection she shared with Rider never really faded. Yet soon it becomes apparent that she's not the only one grappling with lingering scars from the past. And as she watches Rider's life spiral out of control, Mallory must make a choice between staying silent and speaking out—for the people she loves, the life she wants and the truths that need to be heard.
5 Beautifully Heartbreaking Emotional Stars This book was amazing I don't really know what made me read this book it was a very tough choice to make ( Me being a Scorpio and all it takes us forever to make a choice) But I am very glad I I made my choice to read this book the journey with these two characters was full of angst I cried through half of this book the character were just so touching I felt like I was Mallory AKA "Mouse" ( Which is good in someways because I really truly connected with her) Some people would really have to be patient with this book and especially with Mallory she was very frustrating at times. At times I wanted to scream but hey!! YA book are like that half the time it just simply how teenagers are they do stupid things and sometimes overthink things also sometimes teenager don't have a backbone so I knew a little of what I was getting myself in to I gave this book 5 stars not 4 because I felt what Mallory was going through and I couldn't posses myself to give her or the other characters 4 starts because they all were amazing and had a place in this book yes including the mean big bully (Paige) but in the end she was just trying to help them both. Now Ridder I had a love hate relationship with him don't get me wrong I loved him and his broken and full of guilt self, but I felt like he was just making mistakes after mistakes but I also felt were he was coming from I still loved him though I did not connect with as much as I connected with Mallory ( Most likely because it wasn't told in his POV). Now I didn't really like Carl and Rosa but hey what do you expect a parents is supposed to be I was okay with rosa but carl is a different story I do not have very kind words for him, but the book was just amazing I loved it the characters the setting and the past I loved the journey Jennifer armentrout took us on hope you all read this book and enjoy it as much as I did. |
