Torment: A Novella by H.D. Hunter
4.0
I was blessed enough to be sent a free kindle copy of this by H.D. Hunter for review. Firstly, I inhaled this novella in 45 minutes and, though it may be short, it is powerful. The first thing it made me want to do is hug my brothers! It’s beautiful, emotional and deals with the stigma surrounding mental health and learning disabilities in a gentle but insightful manner, as well as tackling identity and loss.
It’s so important that some books are mirrors, that we can open them and see ourselves, and that’s why it’s imperative that we have more diverse characters and authors represented in our literature. I’ve ordered 2 copies for school as it’s suitable for my year 7s (age 11) and I cannot wait to start recommending it.
