I've read many of Tiffany King's books... I love her. I Facebook stalk her... I just adore her imagination. She's a wonderful author who completely entrances you with her stories.Life has always been tough for Madison... her parents didn't care, and she couldn't get their attention no matter what. When she succeeds, it destroys any chance of a happy family life, and her hope and faith dies. Her only bright spot now is James, her only friend, the only person who understands... they have a suicide pact. When life begins to look up, things don't go as planned. Madison says she doesn't want to be saved.... a really good story dealing with a difficult subject matter. This book follows the life of Madison, a depressed teenager who has made a suicide pact with her only friend at school, James. As the story unfolds another student's suicide causes Madison to question her plans. Enter Dean, a smart and funny 'popular' student that has become Madison's after school tutor. Unlike everyone else, Dean sees the real person Madison tries to hide by being invisible and sets out to be her friend. As Madison comes to accept Dean and let him past her walls she gets to know him and his family and finally begins to enjoy life and experience what real love looks like. This story was kind of the 'white-knight' in shining armour saving the damsel in distress but I like how Madison was adamant she didn't need saving the entire time. I really liked her character - funny, stubborn and loyal to boot. Dean was also really good and I liked how the author portrayed his large family. The only character I thought could use some work was James. He played a key role in the story but we didn't know much about him and I was sad about that. The writing was good and the story pacing was fine although it was a bit slow in a few places. The part of the story I really liked was when Madison realised that 'the truth shall set you free'. Telling the truth about her past was the first step for her to learn to deal with it, forgive and accept herself, and move on to living life. Overall, this was a really sweet and romantic story that managed to keep me happy even while wading through the difficult subject matter of suicide.I would recommend it if you are looking for a quick and easy read that is also a bit thought-provoking.
What do You think about Miss Me Not (2012)?
it may seem like a drag during the first 30 pages or so, but it actually gets better. worth reading.
