Four years ago, Judith and her best friend disappeared from their small town of Roswell Station. Two years ago, only Judith returned, permanently mutilated, reviled and ignored by those who were once her friends and family. Unable to speak, Judith lives like a ghost in her own home, silently pouring out her thoughts to the boy who’s owned her heart as long as she can remember—even if he doesn’t know it—her childhood friend, Lucas. But when Roswell Station is attacked, long-buried secrets come to light, and Judith is forced to choose: continue to live in silence, or recover her voice, even if it means changing her world, and the lives around her, forever. This startlingly original novel will shock and disturb you; it will fill you with Judith’s passion and longing; and its mysteries will keep you feverishly turning the pages until the very last.

Quite the opposite, actually. The narrative was really interesting but it didn't do much to overshadow the flaws ...
Wow. This book shocked me. It's so unique and so powerful. I love Julie Berry's writing and prose. You won't find something like this in any other book. Its written in the second person, our protagonist writing to a male using the form "you" throughout. Its written in poetry form -- and listening to...
Better than expected but it kind of dragged toward the end. I had the mystery answered a few chapters in so it wasn't much if a shock really. At first, I didn't care for the second person voice, but grew accustomed to it as I read. It actually fit the story rather well. I found Judith a wonderful MC...
This novel by Julie Berry was certainly interesting. I feel that the message she was giving to the readers was to find your voice, even when you feel as if you don't acquire one. She sent this message across very well through this novel, I really enjoy books like these where the main character trium...
An extremely unique narration style coupled with a suspenseful story line made this an engrossing read. The chapter (?) breaks were abundant, allowing me to dole out the reading over many short stints. The middle did drag on a bit, but the resolution was strong. As would be expected, the (second-per...
