Saving Francesca by Melina Marchetta

5.0

This book has always been a favourite of mine. I just love how raw and honest it is. So relatable, even years after it's written.

I first read this book as a teenager. I found Francesca so easy to relate to as I struggled with my mental health. I gathered strength from her words and thoughts and felt I understood her and she would have understood me.

As I have grown, and reread this book, I am still in awe at how this book draws me in. Francesca is an old friend I visit from time to time, always learning something new, always relating.

Melina Marchetta writes with passion and poise. She develops characters who become your new best friends.

This is a book I will always recommend to people and one I can never put down.
