Description of  Hit (Lorie Ann Grover)

HIT is a riveting read. Lorie Ann Grover created this unforgettable novel from her own experience. Ten years ago her daughter’s best friend was hit in a crosswalk on the way to school. The devastating incident left a deep impression on the author who later galvanized the emotionally powerful story into this novel. Sarah’s life changes in an instant. One moment she’s walking toward emancipation, college, a possible romance, the next moment she’s struck, hospitalized with brain injury. If Sarah is lucky enough to survive, she faces an unknown future. The author took a bold unprecedented step when she chose to write not only in Sarah’s viewpoint, but also in Haddings’, the young man who was behind the wheel. The alternating chapters explore loss, guilt, family conflicts, true friendship, resiliency and ultimately the possibility of redemption. Honest. Powerful. Deeply true. Don’t miss HIT.
