The Grace Year, by Kim Liggett

dark emotional hopeful sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

Just Wow.   This book sucked me it and I didn't know where it was going.   I had to read at the edge of my seat because I was so tense trying to figure out what happens next.  Everytime I thought I knew what was going on another twist popped up.   In the political climate we are living in this had a lot of same struggles woman have brought to an extreme.  Felt the author had beautiful but very accessible writing.  Highly reccomend!!!!!

While this books has a lot of tiggers I felt it was done in a well done way, although graphic not gorey, the bullying from all sides was definitely the worst but had a very inspiring ending of hope and change.
