Surviving Valencia By Holly Tierney-Bedord – Review by Emily Brockschmidt

Surviving Valencia by Holly Tierney-Bedord
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“Surviving Valencia” is about twin siblings Van and Valencia and the people who loved them. From the point of view of the twins’ younger sister, this story weaves quite a tale. Their sister, always feeling invisible, never even divulges her name to the reader. She always just saw herself as Van and Valencia’s sister, never as a person of value or deserving of anything. Her life feels normal, like it should feel, until it doesn’t. Secrets can’t stay hidden forever, no matter how hard a person tries. This fascinating story stayed with me, long after the book was over. I really did not want to put it down! My mind kept floating back to the story when I was unable to read more, always curious about what would happen or what I would find out. The book is just as mysterious as my review, so I apologize if I haven’t given much detail. Yet, if you were curious about this book at all, READ IT! In the beginning, I wasn’t really sure what I was reading, but this character draws you into her story and doesn’t let go. So, I give “Surviving Valencia” by Holly Tierney-Bedord five stars!!
