4By Patsy82This book is about how special sisterly bonds can be, I only have the book 4 stars instead of 5 because I was kind of disappointed with the ending, the ending left things kind of opened I would have liked to know if Roo was able to ever regain physical use of her body again.. however it was heart warming to see that she didn’t give up on life and was willing to go to any length to return to the normal day to day world even if she would have to adjust to a different way of life.. I think she was so willing to make a go at life again because she knew she had the love of her sister to help her and cheer her on. I recommend this book to anyone who loves sad heartfelt books that have a uplifting message.Amazing
