The Worry Knot by Mary Bleckwehl – Review by Kerry Carr
The Worry Knot by Mary Evanson Bleckwehl
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was a really interesting and captivating story. It let’s you inside the mind of someone that worries a lot and the impact that has on their lives. The author does a great job of explaining the feelings and sensations that Rourke experiences through his days when he is gripped by constant worry.
It also delves into the feelings around being a teenage boy at school. The mixed emotions when encountering a girl he likes and the constant worry about protecting his older brother Carson.
We also see how Rourke deals with his constant anxiety and the way he responds to it mentally.
It is an endearing story focusing on relationship and the struggle to manage things when dealing with your own inner turmoil.
It would be a great book for young adults to read as you come away with the feeling that each of us are unique and different and that just because we seem to be fine doesn’t mean that is always the case.
