Explanation Conducive To Books Breaking TWIG
You know I like authors that have guts and take chances and put themselves out there for the whole world to criticize. Deborah Epperson set herself up to be completely ripped to shreds with some of the plot points in this novel and because of that I stinking LOVE her guts.I fully realize this book isn't going to resonate the same way with every reader. I understand the desire that might prompt someone to give this book a lesser rating or poor review, but honestly it could totally happen. Just because you might not like it or want to believe it or because its not perfectly wrapped-up in a Cinderella package doesn't mean you should rate this book poorly. It was well-written, had an intriguing story-line, superbly developed characters and really delved deep into the human psyche.
This book isn't what I would call a romance, although there is romance/love/heartache & some forms of happiness within its pages. I can't even pinpoint what the exact genre would be for this book, but exquisite would define it best.
Deborah Epperson really makes you think. The entire time you want to save Twig, but she can't be saved. She is literally being broken on almost every.single.page. But don't worry their is redemption and even though its no fairy tale ending its real. It's true. And it really touches the heart. Throughout most of the story I couldn't help, but think "If I was Twig, what would I have done?"
And unless you are Twig you can't honestly answer that question.
If you are looking for a book that takes a chance, tips the scale and teeters on the edge of "How in the hell did she write this?!?" Then Deborah Epperson is your girl and Breaking Twig is your story.
p.s. the title of this book is pure genius.

I would probably give this book 2.5 stars- but I could not finish it after the 17th chapter. The incest scene ruined my ability to finish this book. I recieved it free for my kindle fire so I did not fee bad deleting it from my e reader.I have very mixed feelings about this book. I like the authors writing style,not a lot of fluff- things happened without having to weed thru alot of fluff writing. The things that happened to the main character throughout the book were awful. I kept readingA story of survival under physical and emotional abuse. A reminder that we control our lives based on the way we choose to react to situations.
Loved it. It was heart wrenching. I shed a few tears.

This was a free book on Pixel of Ink. The premise looked interesting, and I will say that the overall plot had some things going for it. The primary concept--an abused girl grows up to find herself becoming the thing she despises--has plenty going for it. The author came up with some satisfying plot resolutions, and the characters pretty much all had both good and bad features rather than falling into the "white hat"/"black hat" trap.But...but. I kept looking for a depth of emotion that I just
It was hard for me to figure out how I felt about this book. On the one hand, I was very into it and it was hard to put down. However, so many awful things happen to Becky throughout the book that I felt bad for liking it. Rape, incest, child abuse, mental institutions, abortion...I'm not sure there was an awful topic that wasn't part of Becky's life. But she was a likable character and you just couldn't help rooting for her and hoping that her life would turn around. I don't want to spoil the
This was a beautiful novel, possibly one of the most genuine voices I've ever read. Only a really good book can give off that feeling of "place". Each time you open the book you go back to the exact same time, the same place, the same people. You belong in that world - it's like a feeling of 'being', like home. This is one of those really good books.We meet Twig at age 13, just months after her father dies. Her mother remarries within 3 months of his death, giving Twig a new stepfather and a
I could not put the book down...it was literally so captivating that I held my Kindle while canning banana peppers and cooking and could not wait for the next chapter. Ms. Epperson, you have done a wonderful job and I hope that you do not stop with Rebecca and Breaking Twig...just awesome.
