So I didn't even read the synopsis before jumping into Wrong Side of Heaven. Was that a mistake, maybe but probably not. I like going in blind sometimes. And wow-wee was this an unexpected surprise. This book had a darker edge to it than I'm used to from Riley's writing but I hung on every word. I adored Winnie. How she refused to become her what her tragic situation made her out to be. How she had dreams. Plans. Goals. How she battled everyday to not become a statistic. But goodness did I ever just want to wrap her up and protect her. Give her a safe place to land. Thankfully, the quiet and unassuming Jasper was waiting in the wings to help her on her worst nights. They struck up a friendship of sorts. It was awkward at times; but they were just teens trying to figure out hormones and feelings. Jasper was odd but his intentions were honest and came from a pure place. He genuinely wanted to see the best for Winnie. And with her past, she didn't know what to do with that. I blame Tess and Jax for that. Ugh those two were the absolute worst. The more I read, the most I kept waiting for this breakout moment for Winnie. For her to break the cycle. And there were a few times when I was like YES! This is it. But nope! There was this constant undercurrent of sadness that wouldn't leave. My heart just got heavier and heavier. For every step forward Winnie took it was five steps back. And that ending! Didn't see that coming at all. Total jaw on the floor, tapping my device furiously looking for the next page. Gah! I so need to know what happens next. Something tells me Gia Riley has more than a handful of other surprises in store for the conclusion of this duet.
ExcerptI’ve become a prisoner in my own body, held captive by my thoughts. Without a TV, there’s not much to do besides write, draw, and think. When I run out of paper, I get antsy, and I talk to Dad, praying he’s watching over me. Because, no matter how hard I try to block out the noise, the inside of my brain feels like a cluttered junk drawer full of odds and ends that don’t matter. A bunch of trash that’s stuck in a small space with no purpose. Sometimes, the voices are so loud, I pace in circles until the ratty carpet fibers stop laughing at me. If I don’t, I’ll end up in the bathroom with the blade against my thigh. On days when I can’t get the chatter to stop, I run the smooth metal over my skin and watch the blood seep out. Blood—the lifeline that unites a family. All my family is dead or gone. God, I hate the sight of blood. The smell. The consistency. The way it smears and stains everything it touches. But, once the blade touches my skin, I forget about Tess and how little I have. Suddenly, that little cut is all I can think about, and I love the way it silences the screaming inside my head. For those few seconds of peace, I forget that Dad’s not coming back, that Trey is gone, and how Tess isn’t ever going to be the mother I need her to be. I’m no longer lonely and afraid. I’m the girl who looks in the mirror and likes what she sees. I am me. Nobody else.
