Gabi, A Girl in Pieces

This review can also be found on my blog.

I can definitely appreciate the points this book hit, but it just didn't vibe with me very well! It's a relatively quick read and I certainly recommend picking it up if you're interested in it, though. As a YA book, it touches on a lot of important issues from abortion to drug addiction to teen pregnancy. One of my issues was that I felt like it was trying to touch on too many things and thus lacked a bit in focus. I'd also look up trigger warnings for this beforehand, as there are a lot of potentially upsetting topics at hand. My final criticism is that it read more like a MG book than a YA book as far as voice goes. I kept surprising myself when Gabi would say something about graduating from high school or applying to college because I honestly kept thinking she was 13.
