A Sliver of Hope by Karla J. Nelienbach

Hope and Hannah...twins since birth, and soul sisters forever. But when Hannah finds Hope dead on the morning of April 1st, she thinks its just another one of Hope's filthy jokes. Hope was probably the only person she knew inside-out, and could trust her life on. The grief of Hope's death is dragging Hannah down into an abyss of misery. That's when brother Doug arrives with Julian, the first person to break her heart. Will Julian help Hannah out of this abyss, or will it be Hannah who would have to make the effort?? As Hannah discovers the 'otherside' of Hope's bright, cheerful nature, it would be unlikely to happen...but when Julian's there, everything can be crazy but fine all at the same time.

Another free book on Amazon! Though the book got rated mostly 5stars, I though it lacked expression. Yes, one part did bring tears (when Hannah called Hope a b****), but other wise, it was mostly Hannah calling Hope selfish all the time. I LOVED Julian's character, but Glory wasn't so 'involved'. Her drinking and partying did complete most of the gap, but the deficiency of Hannah's school days with her did leave some excitement. I like Doug, and his sudden attachment to Hannah. Mom was more lost out, whereas Dad was helping Hannah through therapy. I loved Julian, his carefree attitude and attractive smiles, but the book seemed more of a love story rather than an emotional drama type. Julian's part should have been cut of a bit. Also, I think more of Hannah's and Hope's childhood memories should have been described. Hope seemed like having an all-rounder reputation, but after her her death Hannah is in the limelight. I liked that, and also how Julian would materialise by her side when ever she lost self-esteem. Didn't get some parts though, so I recommend it for readers 13+. :D
