I Was Here - Thryft
I Was Here - Thryft

Poignant journey of friendship, loss, and self-discovery.

If the complexities of friendship intertwined with the raw realities of loss speak to you, "I Was Here" is a resonant read. Gayle Forman expertly weaves a tale that's as much about understanding oneself as it is about deciphering the signs we might miss in those we love. It’s a deeply moving narrative that will resonate with anyone who has ever grappled with the echoes of farewell.

Description

This characteristically powerful novel follows eighteen-year-old Cody Reynolds in the months following her best friend's shocking suicide. As Cody numbly searches for answers as to why Meg took her own life, she begins a journey of self-discovery which takes her to a terrifying precipice, and forces her to question not only her relationship with the Meg she thought she knew, but her own understanding of life, love, death and forgiveness. A phenomenally moving story, I Was Here explores the sadly all-too-familiar issue of suicide and self-harm, addressing it in an authentic way with sensitivity and honesty.
