Fierce Fragile Hearts by Sara Barnard

3.0

Fierce Fragile Hearts is a sequel novel, but it can be read alone, although the lack of backstory can be quite frustrating.. the story follows the life of Suze, a troubled young woman who is trying to rebuild her life after a childhood of trauma. She learns about living alone, building relationships, and ends the novel having become truly independent sorting out some pretty difficult issues along the way. She was a character that I willed to succeed. I enjoyed the book for what it was = a young adult novel. Think it would appeal to girls more than boys in the classroom if I were to use it as part of the curriculum. But lots of good ‘problems’ for young people to think about.
Thanks to Netgalley and The publisher for a chance to read in exchange for an honest, independent review.
