Lovely, Dark and Deep by Amy McNamara

Synopsis:
A resonant debut novel about retreating from the world after losing everything—and the connections that force you to rejoin it.

Since the night of the crash, Wren Wells has been running away. Though she lived through the accident that killed her boyfriend Patrick, the girl she used to be didn’t survive. Instead of heading off to college as planned, Wren retreats to her father’s studio in the far-north woods of Maine. Somewhere she can be alone.

Then she meets Cal Owen. Dealing with his own troubles, Cal’s hiding out too. When the chemistry between them threatens to pull Wren from her hard-won isolation, Wren has to choose: risk opening her broken heart to the world again, or join the ghosts who haunt her.

My Rating
-3/5-
Picked up this book just for the cover, Didn't know what it was about at all before I started reading it.
This book was really raw and emotional but just really real. Honest. The author didn't try to cover up the pain of the characters. She also didn't make it seem like it could all ever be better. I really liked that. I also liked the characters, she had some really strong characters that made the book worth reading. 

Also another thing in this book is the writing itself, The writing made it so good, Amy Mcnamara did a good job at making it really feel real like one minute Wren is happy and life is good the next she doesn't want to get out of bed. Who hasn't had times like that? I just really liked how real that seemed to me.
Anyways I liked this book, not one of my favorites but it certainly wasn't bad at all.
