The Impossible Knife of Memory by Laurie Halse Anderson

4.0

This was my second book by Laurie Halse Anderson, the first being Wintergirls.
In just two books she has become on of my favourite authors.
This is a great coming of age book, its shows a broken family yet there's love. It deals with subjects like PTSD. I loved the charcter of Hayley; she was cynical and strong. I love how she took care of her dad suffering from PTSD and never having a stable job.
The only reason i wouldn't give this book five stars is that i thought some of the dialogues were pretty unrealistic. Other than that it's a great emotional read.
I'd recommend to people who like young adult fiction.
