I thought this book was very emotional and sweet. This is a book for teenagers. The author did a wonderful baseline story with a happy endingi . I kinda related to this with the whole cancer aspect but Unfortunately not everyone gets that happy ending so to read that at least one person is then great.

One of the best books Ive read in quite a while. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down until I was done. It was an emotional roller coaster.

I cannot express the emotional baring offered by this author. I felt as she was only sharing with me of her struggles and later self awareness and acceptance. What a testament to her unique family history. I too lost my father at a young age and it does make you feel so different from a traditional family. Peter has a wonderful mother!

This book was a very good read.  Took a little longer than I planned because it is very emotional.  If you are experiancing a similar situation w/your family member, it will be very emotional.

This book is worth the read. Its a book full of emotions. Have a box of tissues close because youll need it. I sobbed through some of this book but I loved every second of it. I loved the ending.
Noah and Peyton are perfect together. Its great seeing how they grown up and seeing the woman and man they are now. They have values instilled in them from their families that they hold on to. They are family through and through and theres so much love between everyone.
I highly recommend this book. Cant wait for the next book.

Wow! Such a full of so many emotions. I actually work with Tommy and Alice at Treloar School now so I really wanted to read this. Because I know them I found reading this evening more emotional I guess. I didn't realise what they had gone through, what Georgie and James had gone through, in the early stages.
The book shows so much strength by the whole family. It had me laughing as well as reading with tears in my eyes. I think this book is very educational, it shows what a family goes through when dealing with such severe disability. It shows the highs and the lows.
I really enjoyed this, I'm so glad James wrote it and so glad that I know the twins because they are lovely...just reading about Tommy's smile makes your heart melt because it really is such a gorgeous smile to see. They are both amazing children and I'd recommend to anyone to read this book!

Another emotional book by Karen Kingsbury!  This one deals with autism about which I learned a lot.  The characters are great.  Your heart will go out to Holden's parents.  Unlocked also shows what can happen in a high school when one person takes a stand for what is right.  I recommend this book to others.

If you like emotional books, then this is one you must read.  I cried through a major portion of it.  I could relate to Olivia, as I lost my father to cancer when I was 17.  There is so much that you don't understand when you are a teenager, and so much that adults think they must shelter you from.  I saw Megan, as well as Holly, wanting to shelter Olivia in any way they could, from the pain that they knew she would be going through.

Megan and Olivia had such a close relationship and Megan struggled with the best way to leave her daughter behind.  One that would cause her the least pain. She also needed to decide how much of her past secrets Olivia would be able to handle.

The story unfolds with each character telling portions of it, so you get a well-rounded look at what is going on.  There is even a mystical aspect as Megan continues to be part of the story, even after she has passed.  It seems that everybody had been holding on to secrets, all to protect someone in their close knit circle of friends.  How or will these secrets be revealed is played out in the end of the book.

I really enjoyed reading this book and felt like I was one of Megan's circle of friends.  It was hard for me to put down once I started reading it, and as mentioned earlier, I cried through a great portion of it.  I found myself trying to read it when my family wasn't around so that I wouldn't have to hide my tears! (lol)  This book is being made in to a movie so you must read it before it comes out!

This is a very, very good book. It had a major impact on me. My family lived through the Ruskin Heights tornado but were 4 blocks from the damage. The storm was part of our life stories but in a tangential way. We were observers of the carnage but suffered no physical loss. This book brought home to me the devastation the storm visited on those who were in its path. I have a much deeper understanding of the suffering that the victims endured. My heart goes out to them and my thanks go to the author who captured the trauma in such a sensitive and sympathetic manner.

Very moving account for younger readers of why parents with PTSD have a short fuse and may suffer from angry outbursts which are quite out of character. The characters and illustrations are excellent and put over the emotions really well. The reminders of how parents do really love their children are beautiful.

This was a very emotional book filled with love,dispair ,heartbreak and finding your way through the darkness of what life can be at times. Its a beautiful book about hope and dreams and finding peace when they seem so far from your grasp. It's the marriage journey of Quinn and Graham , a couple who are in the worst of times with infertility. Author Colleen Hoover takes you emotionally deep in this book.  it's hard to read yet powerful in understanding for those who go through infertility .Everyone  can relate  to this read because if you are a feeling human being it will resonant with you and if you have lived it , well we all send you our strength and love. This book may cause emotional triggers for some but I think the author is extremely sensitive in her writing and it's never a easy subject matter to write about. Its more than just infertility though it's about a real marriage and what happens when you are soul crushed and shut down and how much of a toll in takes on any couple going through heartbreak. I think everyone that has  been or is married can identify with the read and how hard it is when your spirit is broken in your marriage. And for people getting married well it shows you it's not just about the joy and happiness because those days are the easy days, it's when the hurricanes hit that you have to be able to stand together and hold on tight. Its beautifully written ,deeply moving and I loved all the feels and the laughs because they were in there also. I loved when Ava was her mother for Halloween and when Graham was proud of his girl  for changing the tire , that was hilarious . I cried a few times as well, how could I not , how can anyone not with this book. Well done Colleen Hoover,and you have taught me well , I'll never say to anyone ever again "so when are you two gorgeous people going to make gorgeous babies, "because you just have no idea how much a innocent question can hurt .It's a love story with so much heart and I swear once you start reading you won't be able to rest until you know what's inside the box , sigh , double sigh !!!!.

This was a very touching and emotional book to read.  I have been to the Holocaust Museum and this too was emotional but reading this book from the eyes of a young boy went beyond words.  It was a very insightful experience -- one that touched my heart.  I could understand his struggle with God and his fear of the enemy.  It was deep and gut wrenching but I was so glad I read it.  Those times should never be forgotten so we make sure they never happen again.  Prejudice, greed and power can be devastating.  I'm grateful to the author for sharing his pain, experience and survival.

Such powerful emotions throughout this book from all aspects. As an adoptive parent to an 11year old daughter, I found this helpful to understand what she may be feeling now and in the future. I look forward to sharing this book with her.
