Pieces of Me

This was not at all what I was expecting, and I had a hard time putting this one down.

DID has always fascinated me, whether in movies or books. Pieces of Me is geared more towards YA so that is what immediately caught my attention. You can tell the author researched and did as best as possible to portray the reality of someone having DID. I don't know anyone who has it, but if it's anything like this story then I at least I can have some general idea.

That being said, this is a well written and interesting journey that Dylan and her alters go through. It's definitely easy to figure out early on where this is going, but I think this is more about the process of getting to a healing point versus the mystery of what happened that made DID a reality for Dylan.

I haven't read this author before and I really enjoyed the style of writing and storytelling. Definitely recommend this one for those who aren't sensitive to child trauma and abuse. I sincerely appreciate St. Martin's Press for the review copy. All opinions expressed are my own.
