The Impossible Knife of Memory

by Laurie Halse Anderson

A searing look at the effects of post traumatic stress on soldiers
and their families, seen through the eyes of teenage Hayley. Hayley
is struggling - struggling to make sure her ex-army dad shows
up to work, struggling to avoid her stepmother, struggling not
to fall in love with Finn, who really seems to get her. Struggling
to forget the past. But some memories run too deep, and soon the
cracks start to show. Stunning, hard-hitting fiction from an award-winning
writer.

My earbuds were in, but I wasn’t playing music. I needed to hear the world, but didn’t want the world to know I was listening.


— I don't think is a bad book. I just couldn't connect with the story and the characters.
