The Words We Keep

Thank you to Netgally for the advance copy in exchange for a review.
I really enjoyed reading this book right from the beginning, I was hooked almost instantly and didn’t want to stop reading. I liked the story as a whole and think it has an important message for everyone, but especially teens and young adults. Even though some of Lilys choices in this annoyed me, I found that I still liked all the main characters. I personally found Lily and Alice particularly relatable and one part was so relatable to me, I even found myself with tears running down my face. I would definitely love to see this book be turned into a movie and think it would be a hit, with a powerful, important message to share with the world. One other thing I found particularly enjoyable also was the poems that were in the book which the characters wrote, I feel like this was something a little different and they were really good. This book will have you on an emotional rollercoaster, sometimes happy, heartbreaking and inspiring. This is definitely one of my favourite fictions I’ve read and it was brilliantly wrote. The only suggestion I’d have was that this book would be the perfect storyline to be wrote from different perspectives. Alternating chapters maybe but other then that, amazing book and would highly recommend. The author wrote “You don’t fix you, because you are not broken. You are already whole, even if you need help. And you are not alone.” This resonated on a personal level and I’m sure this alone will make a difference to so many people out there struggling who might read this.
