Review: Wherever you Go by Heather Davis

Wherever You Go by Heather Davis


The Book:
This book is not part of a series, which I really loved about it.
And it carries a lot of real life issues, who young adults can submit themselves to.
The Author Heather Davis has also written other Paranormal stories, which you can check out on her Goodreads page, which I have linked to, down bellow :)

ISBN13 9780547501512

A huge thank you to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt for letting me get a copy of this ebook, through Netgalley :)

Language: English

Summary: (From Goodreads)
Seventeen-year-old Holly Mullen has felt lost and lonely ever since her boyfriend, Rob, died in a tragic accident. The fact that she has to spend most of her free time caring for her little sister and Alzheimer’s-stricken grandfather doesn’t help. But Holly has no idea that as she goes about her days, Rob’s ghost is watching over her. He isn’t happy when he sees his best friend, Jason, reach out to help Holly with her grandfather—but as a ghost, he can do nothing to stop it. Is his best friend really falling for his girlfriend?
As Holly wonders whether to open her heart to Jason, the past comes back to haunt her. Her grandfather claims to be communicating with the ghost of Rob. Could the
messages he has for Holly be real? And if so, how can the loved ones Rob left behind help his tortured soul make it to the other side?
Told from the perspectives of Holly, Jason, and Rob,Wherever You Gois is a poignant story about making peace with the past, opening your heart to love, and finding the courage to move forward into the light.


The Story:
It´s about a young girl named Holly, who recently lost her boyfriend in a car accident.
While trying to get on with her life, she has to take care of her family.
Her family is poor and her grandfather has to move in with them, because he is getting sicker and sicker, with Alzheimer. Her mother is working day in and day out, for making a living. While Holly has to stay at home, taking care of her little sister and grandfather.

KoblingMy Opinion:
I liked this book, it was really well written and took hand of many issues, who some young kids unfortunately has to experience. Taking care of sibling, grandparents. Family members who are sick, Missing someone you love, Getting on with your life, after having a hard time. Trusting people again, Mourning, School, Friendship etc.
So many important issues in one small book. Which I really liked about it.
Therefor I gave it 6 out of 6 stars

The book holds many good advices and can help many people, so they can understand, and not feel alone.
