Rain Rising by Courtne Comrie

5.0

Appropriately titled “Rain Rising”!
This YA novel focuses on one family, one girl, who overcomes so much. Rain, a middle schooler, who lives with her mother and older brother, Xander. It is told through the eyes, voice, and emotions of Rain. Rain’s emotions run DEEP. She has fears of her own that get even more compounded when her brother, Xander has a major incident. An incident that rocks the whole family. But with the help of those around her, she finds her voice, her passion, and Herself!!! She soon becomes that “gentle force” of Rain Rising. A novel for those young and old; a coming off age story and a tear jerker definitely!
Thank you Net Galley and Harper Collins Publishing for allowing me an advanced digital copy for my honest review.
Courtne Comrie did an excellent job in writing this book. She puts a lot of passion and emotion in her writing. She brings the characters to life in such a way that you feel every dream, every year, every triumph. I can’t wait to read more of her books.
