Synopsis:
Four years ago, Judith and her best friend disappeared from their small town of Roswell Station. Two years ago, only Judith returned, permanently mutilated, reviled and ignored by those who were once her friends and family.

Unable to speak, Judith lives like a ghost in her own home, silently pouring out her thoughts to the boy who’s owned her heart as long as she can remember—even if he doesn’t know it—her childhood friend, Lucas.

But when Roswell Station is attacked, long-buried secrets come to light, and Judith is forced to choose: continue to live in silence, or recover her voice, even if it means changing her world, and the lives around her, forever.
 
I was really disappointed with this book. I loved the cover so much and thought that it sounded like an amazing story but it did not live up to it. My biggest problem with this book was the writing style. It felt disjointed to me like the pieces of a puzzle that just did not want to fit together. I also didn't like that she was telling the story to Lucas but hardly ever said his name. Instead, she referred to him as you and it made me feel like she was talking to me rather than to him. I also don't feel like the reader is really given much background information in order to understand what is going on in the story. The author just dumps you in at the point where she has been home for a few years and expects you to understand. I also had no idea that this was going to be a historical in nature. I have to admit that I rarely like books in that genre so I am biased for that reason.
