It is difficult to describe this book as enjoyable as it is quite traumatic and disturbing. As a parent, I found myself reading about the worst thing imaginable and because of that I found it quite upsetting. However, although I felt like that, I was also gripped by the story and couldn't bring myself to put the book down. Although there is violence at the start, it is not a violent book overall as it is more about the aftermath of a tragic incident rather than the event itself. It is incredibly moving to read about the characters affected and how they deal with their feelings.
Overall, this is an overwhelmingly powerful and thought -provoking story and is well worth reading.
Why not also take a look at [[The Kindest Thing by Cath Staincliffe|The Kindest Thing]]or [[The Silence Between Breaths by Cath Staincliffe|The Silence Between Breaths]], both by Cath Staincliffe.
