How to Save a Life Audiobook

" If you like Sarah Dessen, then try books by Sara Zarr. A good story of loss, finding oneself, and discovering what's important in life. "

" Fabulous story about a grief-stricken girl and her mom, who decides to adopt a baby after the accidental death of her husband.Mandy, the abused teen mom who wants to give up her child for adoption is complicated, too. Told from 2 teen perspectives. Wholly satisfying and moving story with believable characters going through life-changing events. "

" Heartbreaking and uplifting, sweet and bittersweet, and for anyone who has lost a parent-a book that will speak to you. I lost my father at 17 and this book brought back so many emotions I thought I had long buried and forgotten. Zarr really nails it. Memorable characters and a beautiful story. "

" This was very different than I expected but still amazing. I liked the dual narration. Jill was honest and real. Her internal dialogue was heartbreaking seeing what she wanted to say but couldn't. Mandy was mysterious and niave all at once. It took me a while to trust her. But as I learned more, I felt for her. I loved the character of Ravi. "

" I recommend this book to anyone who like teenage girl books. It is a really good book that shows a girl trying to get over her old life and deal with her new one and the tasks and people that come along with it. "

" I really enjoyed this story. I listened to it as an audiobook and enjoyed the change in point of view between the two main characters. "

" Zarr does what (I think) is another wonderful job at writing an emotionally driven novel. Seen through the eyes of two young girls, the alternate voices definately brought another layer to the story. "

" Well written and believable from all perspectives. Zarr is right on with the complicated emotions presented in this heartfelt story! Great read. "

" I was hooked from the beginning. Really care about the characters. "

" This is a beautiful story about what it means to be a daughter, a sister, and a mother. A definate must read for women of all ages. "

" I liked this book a lot more than Zarr's A Story of a Girl. I think the characters were more dynamic and interesting. "

" I enjoyed this book. It was sad but sweet and the ending had a great little twist that made me like it even more! Having two main characters created more depth and feeling to the story and I felt for both girls. Definitely a good read! "

" I was uncomfortable with some of the language and content, but this was one of the most beautiful books I've ever read. "

" of all the Sara Zarr novels i've read, this was the hardest to get into. so i put it on hold....then today i tried it again and this time i actually finished it. in a few hours, if you can believe that. yes its that good :) "

" At first I didn't think the premise of this book was realistic; widow with daughter who is senior in high school adopts a baby? But, I did enjoy the book and really liked the characters. "
