Things I'll Never Say by Cassandra Newbould
3.5
Mini Audiobook Review: Thank you so much to PRH Audio for a complimentary copy of this!
This was such a mix of sweet and sad but yet a satisfying ending all mixed together. This book is told in a journal format of a teenage girl mourning the death of her twin brother who accidentally died of an overdosed. He was someone who she would look to for advice and she does so in the form of these journal writings. She often looks for guidance to her brother and now she is really stuck as she is in love with her two best friends.
I thought this book dealt with grief well. I have not lost a sibling let alone a twin but I could feel Casey's pain. I also liked the representation of Casey being not only a surfer but a fat surfer who is bi.
I thought the narrator Marli Watson was great & brought the youthfulness to Casey's character.
If you are looking for a quick YA listen that has some tough topics, high school drama, check this out!
