Summary:
At the start of her junior
year, Savannah had it all: popularity, money, cheerleading, a boyfriend, and a
best friend. Unfortunately, when you have it all, you risk losing everything.
After a tragic accident forever changes her life and the lives of her friends,
Savannah finds herself faced with a decision to make. She can try to slip back
into her old life, flaws and all, or she can try to redefine herself for her
last year of high school. Is it even possible that Savannah can change after
having everything go her way for 18 years?
Jacob has nothing to
lose. He has seen one too many schools and wants nothing more than to graduate,
so he can finally stay in one place for more than a year. In fact, Jacob thinks
he has every clique and student pegged after switching schools so frequently.
When Jacob finds himself face to face with Savannah, he realizes that she
doesn't quite fit into one of the high school stereotypes.
In fact, they're both
harboring rather big secrets. Maintaining a friendship or any kind of
relationship can be akin to balancing on the thinnest of tight ropes. When the
rope is made of lies, revenge, and half truths, well, it's only a matter of
time before everything and everyone comes crashing down.
Review:
I have received this book
as part of a book tour in exchange of an honest review.
I really enjoyed Holding on
and Letting Go so I was excited for Living in the Aftermath and the book did
not disappoint me.
Savannah used to have it
all until an accident changed her whole life and forced her to adapt and
change. She has her secrets and, apparently so does Jacob and they will both
have to learn how to cope and maintain friendships and other relationships.
Emerson is present in the
story and I still like it but this is Savannah’s story. The friendship between
the two of them grows and I enjoyed reading about it.
New characters are
introduced to the story as well. Jacob
is one of them and he comes across as being quite sweet. He’s a good addition
to the story.
The characters in this book,
just like in the last one, are very well-written, well-developed and
interesting.
Living in the Aftermath is
very well-written and captivating. The story develops nicely and is well-paced.
The book is easy to read and very interesting.
I can’t wait for the next
book in the series now!
Rating: Worth Your Time (4 Stars)
About the Author:
I'm not really going to write a biography. Though I am supportive of the
high schools and colleges I have attended, it's probably not actually the most
interesting stuff about me. I'm going to do a list of five really random things
instead for now.
1) I like making lists. It's weird, and I never actually scratch things off of the list.
2) I sing and dance in the car like a maniac.

3) For the first six years of my life, I truly
believed a shark lived under my bed. I watched Jaws at too young of an age.
4) Without a doubt, I am a night person. I am
enormously grumpy when first woken up in the morning.
5) When I was younger, I read almost every
Nancy Drew book, both new and old. I had a notebook, and I would take notes to
see if I could figure out who the "bad guy" was before Nancy did. We
probably tied.
