“But I want to be the person that makes you see you’re not nothing-you’re everything.”

Let me start of my review with saying…I am so scared that this won’t do the book justice. If I could give it more than 5 Stars I absolutely would. I have started this review many times and just couldn’t find the right words and would delete them and start over again.

 

This book brought out so many feelings for me. There less than a handful of books that have made me cry and Remembering Phoenix was just added to that list. The emotions that it brought out in me were powerful. There are many life lessons that can be learned from this book and these lessons should be taken to heart.

 

Randa’s writing has greatly improved from her debut book. She has grown and matured and become more comfortable in her writing style. Remembering Phoenix is nothing like her first book, Always. It touches on some darker subject matter but the author handles it all beautifully.

 

Charlie is such a complex character. She has been through so much in her short life and tries to deal with everything the only way she thinks she can. Charlie’s story crushed my heart to pieces but also gave me hope. Hope that someone so lost can be found. Sometimes it just takes the right person to nudge you towards the light.

 

Slayter has some of his own “demons” to slay but I think in helping Charlie he was helping himself as well. The love he has for Charlie is something to be amazed by. It seems like it is unending and knows no bounds. You can sense it in every action and every word.

 

I really can’t express how amazing this book is. It is an ABSOLUTE MUST READ. You can tell the author poured every ounce of her soul into this book.
