This book is about Savannah Rose, or Sparrow. Sparrow is a seventeen year old girl. She’s a ballerina, a small town in Virginia. Sparrow had a troubled childhood, due to her mother. Leaving her good at hiding, and keeping things secret, and to herself.
She’s excited when the seemingly perfect guy, Tristen King, asks her out. He’s a track star, has money, is handsome. But that leads to abuse, and as she’s learned growing up, keeping it secret. A girl that never tells. So, the abuse gets near fatal for Sparrow.
I don’t even know where to begin with this book. It was beautiful, it was heartbreaking, it was incredible. What Sparrow goes through, your head breaks for her. And the more you learn, the more you feel.
The characters (even the bad one) were beautifully and wonderfully written. Your heart breaks for what they go through (not the bad one). You feel for them.
This is a book that draws you in right away. You get totally and completely involved in the world of these characters. You want to keep reading, page after page. You need to know what happens next.
This story is written in the point of view of Sparrow, and her best friend and dance partner, Lucas. I think writing it in this way, was the perfect way to tell this story. Reading Sparrow, you are getting her thoughts and feelings. You get to learn why she feels she has to keep everything secret. It kind of gives you an idea of what an abuse victim may think and feel. So you can better understand them. And as Lucas, you are getting the other side of it. How, watching a loved one suffer abuse, affects those that loved them.
I absolutely LOVED this book. I’ll admit at points it made me ugly cry. Amazing story.
