After The Quiet is a beautiful debut novel written by Melissa Josias about nineteen year old Emily James revisiting her old home town which she moved away from three years previously because if she didn't her family were worried she may not make it.
Three years ago her best friend Elliott Lacey passed away and her life seemed empty, she avoided speaking about Elliott to her new friend for fear she would break. It's time to face it all again when her family decide to visit the Lacey's for a few days only for Emily to find out that the Lacey's are finding it difficult to move on too.
Emily faces a lot of demons that have plagued her since Elliott's tragic death and going to the place where it happened helps her a lot once she comes to terms with other things too. She also makes friends with Sam, the boy who has moved into her old house.
I thought this was a great novel, well written and kept me interested from start to finish. I would love to know if Emily and Sam stay in touch and if something good happens between them and where Mr and Mrs Lacey move to and what happens with everyone afterwards.
