This Is How We Change the Ending by Vikki Wakefield

4.0

Raw and real. I love Vicki’s writing. In 2019 I read so many books about toxic masculinity- brothers, fathers, lovers, “friends” & colleagues who were inflicting so much damage on others. ‘This is How We Change the Ending’ was a book I picked up a handful of times off my TBR pile but the first chapter had me so worried about what was to come for the main character Nate that I had to put it down. In 2020 I’m determined to read more Aus YA and I’m starting with ones that I’ve heard great things about so I finally invested time to push past the first chapter and get stuck into ‘This is How We Change the Ending’. I am so, so glad I did. This is no lighthearted coming of age story but it’s about love and learning who you are written in a very raw, honest and clever way. Read it!
