In My Mailbox (5)

In My Mailbox is a meme created by The Story Siren where bloggers can talk about which books they have received over the week.

This week I received:



Finally! After reading this book four times, I have finally gotten Willow by Julia Hoban, my favorite book of all time. This is by far the best book I’ve ever gotten In My Mailbox. 

Goodreads description: Seven months ago, on a rainy March night, sixteen year- old Willow's parents died in a horrible car accident. Willow was driving. Now her older brother barely speaks to her, her new classmates know her as the killer orphan girl, and Willow is blocking the pain by secretly cutting herself. But when one boy - one sensitive, soulful boy - discovers Willow's secret, it sparks an intense relationship that turns the "safe" world Willow has created for herself upside down. 

Told in an extraordinary fresh voice, Willow is an unforgettable novel about one girl's struggle to cope with tragedy, and one boy's refusal to give up on her.
