review 1: Ava Darton is 23 years old and a resident in a psychiatric ward. Her story tells of how she came to be there and her journey to get better.At 18 years old Ava is a senior in High School. She is introduced to Tyson Andrews who has just moved to Virginia with his Dad to be closer to his Mum and Sister.Their relationship soon blossoms and after 3 years together they begin to make arrangements to get married.Tragedy strikes leaving Ava unable to cope…I gave this book 5* because not only because the story is written with such depth you could get lost in the emotions but also it became a kind of self-help experience for me.The writing feels honest which I appreciate in books like this. You instantly feel Ava’s grief and conflicting emotions as she gradually begins to get bet... moreter.Being set in a psychiatric ward I initially thought that it would become like a movie and be full of drama, but it takes an honest approach making the reader more at ease.During the story a few significant characters emerge, all with their own troubles. I love that we don’t initially know why some of these people are in a psych ward and we are able to pick up characteristics throughout the story leading to the reasons why.These characters are brought into this story with ease and all have their own way in helping Ava.It was interesting to see how Ava coped not only being put away but also her journey to feeling able to live again.It also manages to leave you with the question I guess we’d all have to face.How would you cope if your reason for living was suddenly gone?Tabitha Freeman is known for ghost stories and manages to leave the reader with a touch of that in this story. I felt that it is incorporated into this story in a way that is believable and brought a very perfect ending to this enjoyable book.I will be definitely looking at more of Tabitha’s work.
review 2: I read this one because it was from the same author as Ghost Story. It's a different genre but it still has some similarities that connect them. I read this one in much smaller increments than I did her previous book, but still felt anxious to pick it back up and continue reading to find out what happens. The writing was heartfelt and made me cry when she describes what Ava is going through with the loss she experiences. It really makes you think about where you would be if these things happened to you, even though it is light hearted in places as well. less
