I first saw this book here on BookFirst, but sadly didn't win a copy. I happened to see it available on NetGalley and requested it right away, and thankfully was approved!
I am a complete and utter wreck. I don't know how I'm supposed to go on. I knew from the blurb that this book was going to be tough, but I didn't know just how brutal it would be. I almost stopped reading before I even really got started, but for Jack and Matty, like Jack and Matty, I had to keep going.
This story tore my heart apart, but it stole it as well. Jack and Matty own that battered and bruised organ and I don't care if I ever get it back. This book will haunt me for a very long time. It will be joining my favorites on a very special shelf.
It's hard to believe this is Cory Anderson's first book. I'm so blown away by the writing and the story. What Beauty There Is is a stunning, poignant, and powerful debut novel and I cannot wait to read more by this author.
