Three teenagers… two who are fixable, and one who is not. Two boys—one who has never known caring, but feels its loss; one who has had it, lost it, and wonders if it’s worth the pain—and a girl who knows both caring and loss and wants to show them both that it’s worth everything.Casper is a larger t...

I received a copy from Netgalley.A very moving novel. Wasn't sure what I was going to make of it, but I was surprised at how much I empathized with Vic. I loved his character. Such a sensible, (mostly) level headed boy. Always at the side lines, in the shadow of his much more popular best friend Bre...
I received this book via NetGalley to give an honest review. First let me say I am not giving this book a solid 5 rating because one of the characters has my name even though I think that is AMAZING!!!

As the story got moving there were aspects of the book that I really liked, such as Vic’s BFF friendship with Brett, and I f...
The only thing that's keeping me from giving this book full five stars is the set-up's similarity to Hushed (which I loved): Two boys and one girl. All broken in one way or another trying to figure out how to move on from one day to the next. I liked it, but I can't quite explain why.
This book deals with some serious issues of high school life. Underaged drinking, peer pressure, bullying and all the repercussions that occur due to the ripple effect this creates. Vic is the stereotypical loner, the quiet introvert with a stutter. His best friend Brett is the opposite; good lookin...
