Highfall
Highfall by Ani Alexander Annika is just 17 and attending college for medical when she is almost run down by a black car.
The man takes her to the hospital where she's pronounced ok and they go for coffee. For hours they talk to one another and learn about each other.
She continues her classes and work after at the hospital. She sees signs of his illness and when he asks her to move in with her that is also brought up and she moves in with him.
His other friends introduce him to heroin and he loses his job at the bank shortly afterward. She feel she can't reach him.
She tries to make him see what his drug has done to them and upon learning she's pregnant she heads home to tell him but she walks in on them...
Her second boyfriend, Vasko is a financial analyst and they met via a programmer chat area online. They soon move in together.
The first and second boyfriends life's are followed as she moves onto Amsterdam for a change.
During the process she becomes mature and makes decisions that will make her happy.
I found the book hard to read because of the brutal language and sex scenes but able to get through it because of the story line.
She and Vasko make plans for the future and tragedy strikes instead...
She used to be such a dull ordinary girl, doing everyday ordinary things. She can't say that now. Not quite the ending I had pictured after all the drug use.
I received this book from the author in exchange for my honest review.
