Breaking Free By SM KOZ Review

Breaking Free is a young adult novel by SM KOZ. It is an e-book. 

I don't want to give a lot away, because this is a very good book & I had a hard time putting it down.

The story is about 16 year old Kelsie. She has lost her best friend in a car accident & feels it is her fault. Kelsie turns to cutting to deal with her grief. Once her step mother finds out, she is shipped off to a wilderness program. She tries to get sent home from day one, but after so long she gives in & starts to bond with most of the others that are also there. She bonds the most with a boy he nicknames JC & the two become very close. They help each other grow. A storm hits while in the woods and everything changes. Does Kelsie use what she's learned to cope or does she end up going down hill again?

Over all, I enjoyed this book. I was hooked from the beginning. It really goes into detail on how some people deal with grief and depression. I would not suggest this book for ones under the age of 15 because of some of the scenes that take place in the book. There is talk of cutting, sexual situations and other violence.

Book reviews are not my strongest point. I end up wanting to do practically a book report & give everything away.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Hit by Lorie Ann Grover Review.

Hit is a book about a girl named Sarah who is a senior in High School. She has a crush on her poetry teacher & plans on giving him a poem. He life changes completely before she can even get on the bus for school, she gets hit by a car as she crosses the road. It turn out to be her teacher that she wrote the poem for has hit her. Sarah's family grows closer as they help her fight for her life.

I really enjoyed this book. It really grabbed my attention and I had a hard time putting it down because I had to know what was going to happen next. I thought it was very well written, I was able to easily tell who was speaking. It gave great details, so It was pretty easy to picture the story in my head. It shows how easy life can change within a blink of an eye. I do wish that the book was longer. I would like to know what happened after the last chapter. I would 100% recommend this book!
