I have been looking forward to reading this book for a while now. As with all of Julie Anne Addicott’s other books, it didn’t cease to amaze me. But this one, this one will hit your heart.
The way Julie Anne Addicott wrote this story, you’ll think you’re actually in it. Such vivid description. I could picture all the characters in my head, what they look like, what they went through. I thought about them, well after I was finished reading the book. Some parts of the book were a little hard to read, as it hit home for me, but I was unable to put it down. The emotions that this book evoked from me while reading it… Left me speechless! Rarely do books do that to me
This isn’t the genre of books I usually read, but I am so glad I gave this book a chance! This has to be Julie Anne Addicott’s best work so far.
Love Lost Her Way is one of those stories that grabs ahold and will not let go. I finished a couple of hours ago and I am still trying to properly review this amazingly heartbreaking book.
I will say that it is not for the faint of heart. It will break your heart into a million tiny pieces. If you are sensitive to abuse mentally, physically and sexually or child sexual trafficking, just be prepared. I’m not sure that I have cried so hard while reading a book in a very long time. I had to walk away a few times but I am so happy that I finished it. So worth five stars!!!!
Julie has done it again .
This book will take you on a roller coaster of emotions that will suck you in from the very first page .
I feel like my heart has been ripped from my chest in the most delicious way .
5 stars isn’t enough
Easily one of the best books of 2019
This book is worthy of all the stars.
I’ve sat here staring and thinking of how to express my love for this book, this story, these characters. The array of emotions I experienced.
This story is raw, painful, tragic.
It’s not a tale of just -boy meets girl (and to me it will never be about the boy at all)- love but, a journey of loss and heartbreak and survival.
Julie Anne Addicott created such a vivid picture of her characters, they became a part of me, they will always be a part of me.
The author wrote about certain topics, described graphic horrors without glorifying it, while evoking authentic emotions: anger, loss, sadness, love, hatred, healing, regret, guilt… I felt them all.
I appreciate her attention to detail, the research she clearly did, the raw honesty that was felt with each word.
This book has been added to my all time favorite reads.
Love Lost Her Way has left me almost speechless! Julie Anne Addicott has completely outdone herself with this work of amazing word art!!! She has managed to create a world so dynamic and engrossing that you can see and feel everything as though you’re there bearing witness!!! It’s the most amazingly dynamically written book that I have ever had the pleasure of reading!! It is so layered and flows so well, like an intricately woven tapestry!!! I have never had a book have me so captivated and hooked that I was begging for more heartbreak and healing just to have more to read!!! I laughed and cried and hurt and rejoiced and cheered and wished characters dead! I ugly cried and jumped for joy!!! If you’re looking for the most addictive, inspiring, harsh, beautiful and emotional roller coaster of a read…. then this is the book of the year for the win!!! I am still amazed and currently reading AGAIN for probably the 15th time!!!! I have never had a book make me experience and feel the gamut of emotions like this one! It’s now my all time favorite book in the whole world!!!! If you don’t read this, you’re missing out tremendously! I feel forever bonded to these characters, they’re etched into my soul!!!
