Seven months ago, on a rainy March night, sixteen year- old Willow’s parents died in a horrible car accident. Willow was driving. Now her older brother barely speaks to her, her new classmates know her as the killer orphan girl, and Willow is blocking the pain by secretly cutting herself. But when one boy —one sensitive, soulful boy—discovers Willow’s secret, it sparks an intense relationship that turns the “safe” world Willow has created for herself upside down.
Told in an extraordinary fresh voice, Willow is an unforgettable novel about one girl’s struggle to cope with tragedy, and one boy’s refusal to give up on her.
Hey if you're looking for a good book (or two) to read you could help me out by ordering my books Epidemic and The Whitman House Vamtares. Just go to Amazon.com and search my name: Gina Hayden. My books should be at the top of the page. Currently $7.55.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START.....THE BOOK WAS FULL OF EMOTION. JUST IMAGINING THIS YOUNG WOMAN CUTTING HERSELF MADE ME SHED A TEAR OR TWO. I LOVED HOW HER RELATIONSHIP WITH GUY GREW INTO BEAUTIFUL LOVE. I ALSO SHED A TEAR OR TWO WHEN HER BROTHER FINALLY OPENED UP TO HER. I ESPECIALLY LOVED THE END WHEN SHE WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO LET THE BLADES GO INTO THE WATER. I WOULD REALLY BE INTERESTED IN A SEQUEL. I'D LIKE TO SEE THEIR RELATIONSHIP BLOSSOM AND SEE HOW HER BROTHER HANDLES IT WHEN HE FINDS OUT AND SEE HOW CONSELING CAN HELP HER......I KNOW THERE ARE YOUNG WOMEN OUT THERE WHO CUT THEMSELVES...ITS GREAT THAT THIS BOOK IS OUT THERE. IT JUST MIGHT HELP THEM TO STOP!!
So, even though I said I couldn't read Willow until summer vacation...I couldn't wait. So I read it, and finished it, last night. Yeah- it's pretty much amazing :] I love the images that crossed my mind...I mean, it was just so real. I felt her pain, her quietness, and her heart melting as she fell in love.
