Beneath the Skin by Kyla Stone




Genre: Young Adult, Realistic Fiction
Source: I received a copy to facilitate my review. The opinions expressed here are my own.

Sometimes you read a book and must really process it before you can write the review. This book was one of those for me.  From the minute I met Sydney I knew she was so much more than what we saw on the outside.  I hated the girls who tormented her. I hated the life that she was forced to live. At the same time I admired her ability to not only survive her life, but make sure her brothers survived. She was a hero in my book. This is a book I will put on my shelves. It is an important book if it helps just one child. If this is the quality of this author's work then I owe it to myself and others to read everything she has written. Not too many people can write about this topic that takes you on an emotional ride and yet leaves you feeling good at the end.  I will not write about the plot to this book.  That is for you the reader to do.  I will recommend it along with a box of tissues.  It is probably in the top five favorite books I've read this year.  I will say this is a must read.
