The Reason Why by Izzibella Beau – Review by Jana Teppih

The Reason Why: Breathless Series by Izzibella Beau
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Reason Why by Izzibella Beau is a story that will stop you in your tracks and make you think and feel. It is a story of life having been upended, a story of growing up and a story of hard choices. It is not the first book I have read by this writer and I think she is a great YA writer that I would recommend to any of high schoolers and teenagers struggling with finding their way.
Alabama’s life has always been close to the edge thanks to her mother’s actions and it culminates with her mom ending up locked up so she gets sent to her mom’s best friend from high school who has 2 sons, Joshua and Hunter. You can only imagine how life might be with them … one of them becomes the best friend and the other one seems to be ignoring her … I believe many of us who are older than the target audience, can still remember the angst and pain and hope and the first love …
I promise that you will cry and laugh and it all feels real and you keep your fingers crossed and hope that everyone finds their happiness. And add to this music and you have a movie running in your mind’s eye. I wish you many pleasurable hours while following in Alabama, Hunter and Joshua’s footsteps!
