Please excuse the impending rants and know that I'm writing this review with tears still in my eyes... Oh, and the fact that my eyes are sore and I've got a headache from crying.Falling to Pieces happens to be my favorite book outside of my normal YA Fantasy genre. Several reasons to include as to why this is happens to be the following: The main character's personality and way of life is much like that of my own. The more I read through this book, the more I felt as if the author was stalking my life for her own muse. Much like the character, I strive to do everything I can to make other people happy, even if that means to put aside how I feel. She and I both felt unloved and uncared for (though my mother is not like the mother in this book).What I really liked about the writing style, was the fact that, again, much like me, the character hears things differently than how they are said to them. This is signified in italics (see below for an excerpt to describe what I'm getting at):I stood there for several long moments that bordered on eternity, staring down at it, terrified to lift my eyes and face my teammates. Could I be a bigger loser? Finally, Jeff--one of Doug's football teammates--stepped in, scooping up the ball and tossing it to the other side."Nice try."Why don't you do us all a favor and play for the other team?Another reason I started to believe the author was stalking my life was because Kiernan's brother, Cal, calls Jade, Angel. My boyfriend calls me Angel, and I've had people tell me I was one and provide the same explanation Cal gave to Jade when she asked him why he called her that."As far as I can see, nothing about your life is easy, at all. And yet here you are.
