But can they break free from ...… (altro)

Bigger Things is about three long times friends. When one of them has a breakdown following the resurgence of memories of repressed childhood trauma, it forces them all to re-evaluate their lives and look at their own issues that they have been avoiding.
The story is easy to read, and well paced. The dialogue and language used is in keeping with the age of characters and the narrative does not intrude on the story.
The characters are well rounded and realistic and their issues particular about body image and self-esteem are one that everyone can relate to as is the advice that Jen's character dispenses.
A really good read.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
