Title: One Moment
Author: Kristina McBride
Series: N/A
Publication Date: 26th June 2012
My Synopsis:
Maggie is there when
her boyfriend, Joey, jumps from the cliff and dies by accident, the only
problem is; she can’t remember anything after getting to the top. We see her
trying to deal with her grief and trying to remember what happened, along with
trying to keep the rest of her group of friends together.
Why I picked this book up:
I love a book that makes me feel, and I was
hoping it would do just that.
Did it live up to my expectations?
I didn’t expect this to be as good as it was, so it far exceeded
them. It certainly made me feel.
What I thought:
I started this book at 10.30pm, fully intending to only read for
half an hour, I turned out my light at 12.30am having just finished the book. I
don’t really know what to say about it, except that I loved it. The characters
and emotions felt quite real. It was a little predictable, but that didn’t take
anything away from the great story, if anything it may have helped because you
are waiting for Maggie to catch up with you, but understand why she can’t make
her mind go there.
Read if:
I haven’t read it myself, but readers of “Breaking Beautiful” by Jennifer Shaw Wolf may enjoy this. Anyone who
enjoys realistic YA fiction should like this. Basically I think everyone should
read this, it’s one great book.
