Cut

by Shavonne Paroline

Cassie is a 19 year old girl on the brink. Raised by an absent mother, unable to afford college, and reeling from a devastating loss, she struggles to find reasons to get through each day. Cassie turns to cutting herself in response to her overwhelming pain and doesn't know how to stop. How does someone who has nothing find the will to care? When Cassie meets Josh, an incredibly good looking college senior, she is amazed at how quickly he breaks through her defenses. Josh doesn't even shame Cassie for her self-harm. Will he help her heal, or is Cassie too far gone? Cut examines what happens when someone must find light at the end of their tunnel, and how sometimes love doesn't conquer all. Sometimes we must trust others and often they will help us see the strength to heal lies within ourselves.

I received this book as a gift from the author in exchange for an honest review.
This story is so close to reality, it’s scary. We live in a depression world with heartbreak and loss. Cassie struggles to deal with the pain but finds her outlet by cutting herself. It’s truly a sad story until she finds Josh.
I won’t spoil the story by telling you if she can survive her woes, but I will tell you that you should definitely read this book. It’s inspiring.
