‼️ Een waarschuwing voor toekomstige lezers: Dit boek bespreekt thema’s als zelf beschadiging, seksueel misbruik, een age-gap relatie tussen een minderjarige en een volwassene en problemen rondom mentale gezondheid. Neem alsjeblieft de trigger warnings door voordat je dit boek leest als jij hier gevoelig voor bent ‼️
Girl in pieces gaat over Charlie Davis die op 17-jarige leeftijd al meer heeft meegemaakt dan de meeste mensen in heel hun leven meemaken. In dit boek volgen wij Charlie haar weg naar herstel en dat gaat natuurlijk komen daar verschillende tegenslagen en moeizaamheden bij kijken.
Het verhaal is heel toegankelijk geschreven en leest snel weg. Door de korte hoofdstukken wordt je snel het boek in getrokken en is het lastig weg te leggen. Girl in pieces zet een heel mooi, rauw en echt portret neer van de weg naar herstel. Het laat de lezer weten hoe makkelijk je terug kan vallen. Hoe belangrijk een support-systeem is. En hoe het grootste gedeelte van het herstel uiteindelijk op jezelf aan komt.

it was my FIRST book that I couldn't put down in a long time, I had it everywhere with me.
it got me so broken.
I just finished it and I feel, I feel weird, I feel so numb.
everything was finished, with no unanswered questions at the end, no doubts, no plot twist to leave you in suspense.
I just felt empty, but not empty of feeling, just empty like you feel when you get attached to something, and then you don't have it anymore, that empty.
but I loved every page, chapter, author's note, everything.
the way Kathleen wrote everything made me realize that you know what,I am not the only one struggling, but there are hundreds, thousands, whatever, loads of people struggling. it just made me so happy to see that I can relate SO MUCH to other people as well.
I would give anything to read it for the first time again.

The ending is what brought this from a 3 to a 4 for me. the middle was dull with not a whole lot to keep me invested but the last 75 pages were everything. i cried and i felt that pit of anxiety in my belly but it ended in such a cathartic way that it made the whole experience feel so real and meaningful.

Okay, i have no words. This was sosososo good.
Unlike anything I've read. I'm actually so happy Riley and Charlie didn't end up together. 17 and 27 ain't it and their problems just got in the way
