Love, Aubrey by Suzanne LaFleur

5.0

A glimpse into the heart, body, and mind of a young girl who is changed in a traumatic instant and then left to fend for herself in the midst of the reeling. I particularly noticed the way the author connected the emotional feelings with physical symptoms. Such an important element for youth even when they cannot put words to the pain and grief they are feeling. LaFleur beautifully unfolded the process of healing for a young girl without giving the unrealistic feeling of "happily ever after" at the end, which the book so much better to me.
I think this book could be a great one to read for young adults who have experienced losses similar to Aubrey. Perhaps it can be a gateway into honest dialogue to bring some healing and relief. Recommend!
