Giveaway, Review & Tour: Shattered Soul by Jennifer Snyder


4 Hearts

Goodreads Summary
Hellish Nightmare...

If seventeen-year-old Seth Bradson were to describe his life in two words, those would be the two he’d choose. Seth prefers to cope with his crappy existence by spending his days in a drug-induced haze. But when Ali Carson steps into his life, Seth finds something he’s subconsciously been seeking—a new drug, one that consumes his mind unlike any other. 

Love.

In a moment of unforgivable weakness, Seth allows Ali to try crystal meth, his most addictive temptation. This single event begins the unraveling of both their lives and forces Seth to learn the definition of regret the hard way.



My Thoughts
**Copy of book provided by author for honest review**

If you are looking for a sappy love story where boy meets girl, girl saves boy and they all live happily ever after, then keep looking. You are not going to find any of that here. This book is a very raw and edgy look into the real life consequences of drug use. And there is not pretty or happy about it.

Shattered Soul is a short read but heavy on subject matter. Seth is a stoner who, in my opinion, is a product of circumstance. He has a live in drug dealer, his brother, so it is difficult to resist temptation when it is basically shoved in your face daily. Needless to say, Seth is on a fast track to no where.

And then he meets Ali.

He believes that she may be able to change him for the better. But Ali isn't the sweet innocent girl that Seth first thought. She is more than willing to pop a pill, hit a joint or even snort meth. She quickly becomes addicted to meth and , things go down hill quickly.

I knew things could not end well with this book but I never saw the ending this author has written coming. In a day and age where all books end with a HEA, this one will leave you speechless.

Jennifer Snyder lives in North Carolina were she spends most of her time writing young adult fiction, reading, and struggling to stay on top of housework. She is an instant coffee lover with an obsession for spiral bound notebooks and smooth writing pens. Jennifer lives with her husband and two children, who endure listening to songs that spur inspiration on repeat and tolerate her love for all paranormal, teenage-targeted TV shows.
