Amazing representation of teen struggles with mental health

Ok so at the beginning of this I was honestly triggered. Not in a way that made me stop reading, but some things hit very close to home. (Please don’t let that deter you! Of course read trigger warnings but I believe this story could be good for a lot of people struggling.) The topics are tough, real life issues that a lot of people struggle with.

Somewhere along the way Sam (FMC) opens herself up to help. She becomes social again & even has professional help that she eventually takes seriously. I have to say that my favorite part of the book was when she opened up at Jake’s party. Hearing other people understand her & verbalize their own issues really hit hard. If I had read this in high school I may have let Sam’s courage become my own.

I also appreciate that this book ends happily but that it still showed the ups & downs. Sometimes novels about mental health make it seem like once you find treatment, everything is great. Although that can make for a great story, it’s not true in the least. The way Stokes wrote this is beautiful.

If you want a novel that shines an honest light on mental illness while bringing understanding & hope, get “Hijacked” now!!

Thank you Stokes for allowing me the honor of listening to this. It’ll stick with me for a long time.
