Hard Hitting
These reads hit pretty hard and left me in a book hangover for a while afterwards.
Trigger warning: this book covers a very hard topic of grooming. I had to read this in bits and pieces. It's wonderfully done and captures the trauma and recovery very well.
An inside look at what is happening far too often around our borders.
A look inside the lives of youth living in tough conditions in Africa. The resilience in this book is nothing short of inspiring.
This book shows the resilience and determination of a mother's love and protection of her child.
We all process our traumas differently. This is one story of what that may look like.
An inside perspective of a brutal part of our history.
Anyone that has ever read Jodi Picoult knows to expect some pain with the stories. This title is no different but one of my favorite reads.
Prequel to "Leaving Time." This novella was a very powerful, quick read. Very worth it.
Depression is front and center in this story.
As a single mom, this hit home so hard for me. Its an absolute eye opener.
