Life After

De: Genalea Barker

Narrado por: Emily Shaver

Someone once asked August Haiz if twins realize one of them is an accident. Deep down, August knows if anyone was an accident, it wasn't Benny—it was her. Granted, August doesn't mind dancing in the background, letting Benny be the star musician and center of attention. In fact, she prefers it that way.

Abandoned by their mother as children, the twins have spent a decade dodging the unpredictable nature of their alcoholic father in an attempt to stay off his radar. With graduation in sight and their freedom on the horizon, August and Benny look forward to fleeing their hometown together and starting fresh at college. But a tragic accident turns August's world upside down, swallowing her hopes of a brighter future.

Guilt-ridden and struggling to cope with her new normal, August shuts out the people who love her most, and nearly ruins her most important friendship. If August wants a chance at adjusting to life after tragedy, she'll have to process her pain, let go of the past, and leave the darkness behind.

""A heartbreaking and poignant exploration of grief in the wake of tragedy, Life After reminds us of the incredible strength of the human spirit—to experience pain and love and loss and still find the courage to start anew. Readers will cheer for August in this gorgeously-written story of hope that will stay with you long after you finish the last page." (Amber Smith, New York Times best-selling author of The Way I Used to Be and The Last to Let Go)

Such a great story!

I’m so glad I finally got this book read. While it is emotional and some parts where difficult to listen to it is worth all of it in the end. Genalea wrote the characters so well that I fell in love with them almost instantly. I felt like I was apart of their world and experiencing life with them. I definitely cried a few times but I also loved the playful and sweet moments as well. The ending was perfect and just what it needed to be. Thank you for putting your heart and soul into book form to share with us.

Honest and real

I devoured this book. I loved it because the story was raw and real, but also hopeful. It was refreshingly honest and I couldn’t put it down.
