I'm so glad to hear that you loved I Was Here despite its slow start. Suicide in YA has become a bit of a cliche hey - it's nice to know that Forman tackles the issue correctly and in a unique way. I will be starting this one next, I hope I love it just as much as you did!<br /><br />Joy @ <a href="http://thoughtsbyj.com" rel="nofollow">Thoughts By J</a>Joy @ Thoughts By Jhttp://thoughtsbyj.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-135944866652168595.post-77376141912183366352015-01-08T23:48:30.812+11:002015-01-08T23:48:30.812+11:00More books to read hahhahah :D .

I neeeearly posted my review, but I ended up having a few spoilers (hidden in tags though, heh) and I thought no one will have read this yet. *sigh* So I didn't post my review. BUT I WILL SOON.

I've got this one to review but I've yet to get to it (I have it scheduled in for 2015 so lol, that's a long time to go). I'm glad that Forman portrays a realistic experience. I'm a little bit weary of the slow plot but hopefully things pick up after that!
