The Quiet You Carry

The Quiet You Carry | Nikki Barthelmess

3 posts | 3 read | 5 to read

Victoria Parker knew her dad's behavior toward her was a little unusual, but she convinced herself everything was fine--until she found herself locked out of the house at 3:00 a.m., surrounded by flashing police lights. Now, dumped into a crowded, chaotic foster home, Victoria has to tiptoe around her domineering foster mother, get through senior year at a new school, and somehow salvage her college dreams . . . all while keeping her past hidden. But some secrets won't stay buried--especially when unwanted memories make Victoria freeze up at random moments and nightmares disrupt her sleep. Even worse, she can't stop worrying about her stepsister Sarah, left behind with her father. All she wants is to move forward, but how do you focus on the future when the past won't leave you alone?

I would like to thank NetGalley and Flux/North Star Editions for presenting me with an advanced ARC of The Quiet You Carry by Nikki Barthelmess for my honest and unbiased review.

Nikki jumped right out & grabbed me with the first page of her book. Victorias father throws her out of their home she shared with him step-mother & her step-sister Sarah in the middle of the night in the bitter cold with no coat no shoes, just the clothes on her back

Thank you to North Star Editions and NetGalley for providing me an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The Quiet You Carry follows Victoria who is a seventeen year old girl who winds up in foster care due to an abusive home life. This is a good YA book and touches on some heavy topics. The main character development was good, but I did find a few of the secondary/supporting characters lacking depth. This was a good, fast read for YA/YA fans
