I wanted to like this book much more than I did - I think the author's determination to create a mystery around Zoe backfired. I knew the ending by the second chapter. The characters around Zoe were not developed (the other patients in the treatment centre were barely discernable from each other). It's a shame because I think premise was good. Zoe doesn't know why she's at Twin Birch. Her mother woke her up one morning and drove her here. The place isn't like a hospital -- not like most of them, anyway. It's a fancy house with dorms and cooking classes and supervised eating. That's the hardest part. Still, Zoe doesn't know why she's there. She keeps writing letters to her best friend, Elise. Elise doesn't ever answer, but Zoe knows there must be a good reason -- a last minute vacation or a busy summer or something. Meanwhile, Zoe is left to deal with her super creepy room mate Caroline, and Brooke with her terrifying rage. Victoria might not be so bad, but she's so tiny. She's not like Zoe, the biggest girl there. It's not hard to figure out what Twin Birch thinks she's there for. What her therapist thinks she's supposed to be dealing with. But Elise can't --or maybe won't -- see how she's like the other girls. Zoe's story is compelling, a true page-turner, part mystery and part psychological drama. As the summer goes on, secret after secret is revealed, shedding light on both Zoe's past and her future in spite of Zoe's best efforts to keep herself and the people around her in the dark. With elegant writing and a character whose voice refuses to go unheard, ZOE LETTING GO is a fantastic read that leaves the reader wanting more from author Nora Price. Certainly, I can't wait to see what this author delivers next. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
