About this listen

This characteristically powerful novel follows 18-year-old Cody Reynolds in the months following her best friend's shocking suicide. As Cody numbly searches for answers as to why Meg took her own life, she begins a journey of self-discovery which takes her to a terrifying precipice, and forces her to question not only her relationship with the Meg she thought she knew, but her own understanding of life, love, death, and forgiveness.

A phenomenally moving story, I Was Here explores the sadly all-too-familiar issue of suicide and self-harm, addressing it in an authentic way with sensitivity and honesty.

Interesting book

It is something that I would not interested me, but I couldn’t stop listening , it it brought to my attention about another world that I am not familiar with
I hope other people passed the first stage of the book because it is more than worthy to get involved
I highly recommend
