Title: Paper Girl
Author: Cindy R. Wilson
Released: December 4, 2018
Synopsis: I
haven’t left my house in over a year. My doctor says it’s social
anxiety, but I know the only things that are safe are made of paper.
My room is paper. My world is paper. Everything outside is fire. All
it would take is one spark for me to burst into flames. So I stay
inside. Where nothing can touch me.
Then
my mom hires a tutor. Jackson. This boy I had a crush on before the
world became too terrifying to live in. Jackson’s life is the
complete opposite of mine, and I can tell he’s got secrets of his
own. But he makes me feel things. Makes me want to try again. Makes
me want to be brave. I can almost taste the outside world. But so
many things could go wrong, and all it takes is one spark for
everything I love to disappear...
My Thoughts: I really enjoyed Paper Girl. As soon as I read the synopsis, I was interested. I tend to go more towards fantasy, science fiction, paranormal books, so reading this contemporary was a nice break from the fantastical worlds I tend to frequent. Paper Girl focuses on a girl with severe anxiety, so severe that she won't even leave her house. I think Cindy R. Wilson did a fantastic job of tackling such a tough subject matter. Throw in a cute little romance, and I was so happy with this read.
I've never suffered from debilitating anxiety, so I can't relate all the way to what Zoe was feeling, but I definitely felt her struggle. I appreciated getting to read a book about this subject matter. Anxiety and Depression is a disease that a lot of people struggle with and I think Paper Girl did a good job of depicting it.
I really enjoyed the romance. Zoe had her problems, Jackson had his tough secrets, but the way they came to depend on each other was so sweet.
I'm really glad I got to read this sweet little story. I enjoyed it a lot and look forward to reading more by Cindy R. Wilson.
