My Thoughts
Aubrey hides herself behind Raven who is a goth girl with piercings and colored contacts keeping everyone at a distance for many years. This all changes when she goes away to college and meets Quinn and Kaeleb who will not only become her best friends, but remind her who she is and what it means to really live life again.
Aubrey will break your heart over and over again. This broken little girl who so desperately needs to love and be loved. I so adored Quinn in her life. She forces her pinkness all over her and hugs herself into Bree's world. At the same time Quinn also has her own twist to deal with at the same time. Then there is Kaeleb. Oh Kaeleb. Ever pushing his way back (Yes I said back and no I won't explain here. You have to read why.) into her heart. I was rooting for him all along. He has his own baggage too, but deals with it. They all do in their own way. Together. And the end...well...yeah...that.
I loved this book. Loved. Period.
I give The Resurrection of Aubrey Miller 5 hearts!
About the Book
Death.
For some, it’s simply one of life’s certainties, nothing
more. For others, it’s merely a fleeting thought, one often overshadowed by the
reckless delusion that they have been blessed with the gift of immortality.
For Aubrey Miller, death is the definition of her very
existence. Overcome with the guilt resulting from the loss of her beloved
family, she alters her appearance from the once beautiful, blonde-haired,
blue-eyed little girl to that of one shrouded in complete darkness, enveloping
herself in her own unbreakable fortress of solitude as a form of protection for
others.
As she enters her first year of college, her goal is
simple: Earn a degree with the least amount of social interaction as possible.
What she never anticipates is the formation of very unlikely relationships with
two people who will change her life in ways she never believed possible: Quinn
Matthews, the boisterous former pageant queen, and Kaeleb McMadden, a childhood
friend from her past who never really let her go.
Over the years, as their connections intertwine and grow,
a seemingly indestructible bond is formed between the three…
But when death painfully reemerges, Aubrey is lost once
again, burying herself deeper than ever before inside the familiar
fortification of her fears.
Will the refuge of friendship, the solidarity of
life-long bonds, and the power of unconditional love be enough to do the
impossible?
Will they be enough to finally bring about…
The Resurrection of Aubrey Miller?
