Narration Concering Books Split

Sixteen-Year-Old Jace Witherspoon arrives at the doorstep of his estranged brother Christian with a re-landscaped face (courtesy of his father’s fist), $3.84, and a secret.

He tries to move on, going for new friends, a new school, and a new job, but all his changes can’t make him forget what he left behind—his mother, who is still trapped with his dad, and his ex-girlfriend, who is keeping his secret.

At least so far.

Worst of all, Jace realizes that if he really wants to move forward, he may first have to do what scares him most: He may have to go back. First-time novelist Swati Avasthi has created a riveting and remarkably nuanced portrait of what happens after. After you’ve said enough, after you’ve run, after you’ve made the split—how do you begin to live again? Readers won’t be able to put this intense page-turner down.

Write-Up Out Of Books Split

Rating: 4.5 Stars I've never been one of those last-minute people. I do my homework the day I receive it, I finish projects a week in advance, and I am a responsible American Citizen. Yet, when it came to writing a review for Split, I avoided it like the plague. I would see Split on my list of "Books To Be Reviewed" and I'd write reviews for novels I'd read far after I finished Split. In fact, I kept pushing it further and further behind in my reviewing schedule that I was simply forced to

It has been a while since I read this book (okay, about a month and a half, but I tend to be very forgetful), but I really don't want it to go un-reviewed. Yes, this is a book about domestic abuse, a topic I normally shy away from. I can't even tell you why, as I do "enjoy" reading so called issue-books, but (together with teenage pregnancy) domestic abuse is not something I am drawn towards in books. It is hard for me to not be frustrated by victims accepting their situation, not reporting



I've been in a really odd reading slump lately. I read, but I either barely connected to what I was reading, or I hated every bit of it. I needed a change.So this morning I came here to Goodreads, I opened my 'to-read' shelf and started scrolling, scanning through titles I had forgotten I added back when every book seemed exciting. I stumbled onto Split, then I remembered I had it. It was an impulse to start reading, I didn't even look at the summary before I started the book."Fightology Lesson

4.5 StarsThis was everything I wanted Colleen Hoover's book, It Ends with Us, to be but she didn't quite deliver on to my satisfaction. Both books tackles the issue of domestic violence, but this one was done in a way that I feel is much more believable. It manages to successfully straddle the fine line of avoiding victim blaming, not overly sympathizing or demonizing the abuser, showing how the cycle of abuse can reveal itself in different ways, and also not giving an unrealistic "100% happily

16-year old Jace unexpectedly shows up on his brother Christian's doorsteps with bruised up face. He has nothing with him but his car, his camera case and a couple of dollars. So, what's the deal? How did he find Christian who had disappeared years ago? Did he finally manage to escape from his monster father? Did their mother come along with Jace? Is she even alive? And why did Jace break up with his girlfriend and can't date any more?So starts Split. As you can very well guess, this is that

EDIT: On February 15th, 2012 make sure you stop by The Nocturnal Library for an interview with author Swati Avasthi. We're also giving away two copies of this book, one personalized from Swati (US residents only) and one from us (international)! "Sometimes I wonder why words can't actually make us bleed." Those (few) of you who regularly read my reviews and generally put up with me on a daily basis already know I'm kind of a logic and control freak. I'm not of the tear-shedding, heart-warming
