Amazing.. Another incredible book from my favorite author. Superbly written, this novel made me laugh and cry.

Powerful!. This is a book about love, redemption and forgiveness. All gifts we need to bestow on ourselves and on others.

loved!!!. one of my favorites

Relatable for Many Situations. 4.5 stars This is a great story for mature teens and adults in my opinion. The main character goes through bits of those stages of her life during this book. It highlights how some things and people will affect you forever and how some things and people will not remain the focus of your life. It shows how a person can change everything around and how pain and joy come and go. The lead is in a tragic accident, which stops her from moving forward. After trying to end it, she has to reset her life. She slowly heals and finds her path. Really, it’s hard to sum up this story because I can’t explain the depth of life that takes place within its words. I definitely recommend this book.

I’ve read at least 5 times. This book is amazing! It walks you through the PTSD of surviving an intense car wreck. Alice has done a wonderful job of taking us on a journey through this book!

Read it!. Loved it. Realistic struggles with a hopeful energy.

Dark. Very dark story and the resolution left more to be desired

Dark , yet immersive. I dove headfirst into this book and read it in one night. I love Shelby’s character - her pain is so raw and relatable. Her self-punishment and grief is so beautifully written, and I could not put it down. I needed to know Shelby was going to be alright. I love this book. I love this author, who also wrote Practical Magic.

Faithful. It was good. Not near as awesome as The Dovekeepers, but good. I think I’ve red every AH book since that one.

Very moving.. The characters really grab you by the heart and squeeze!

Unforgettable!. Faithful is a remarkably well-written, complex character-driven novel. Right from the start, the reader is brought intimately into the heart and mind of a troubled teen, suffering from survivor guilt. Shelby and Helene were the best of friends. They were inseparable until one night when Shelby’s car spun out of control, and Helene ended up in a coma. After a brief psychiatric hospitalization, seventeen-year-old Shelby shaved her head, isolated in the basement, smoked pot, and basically, gave up on life. Although Shelby did her best to keep people at arm’s length, she was amazed to find, that they were still, drawn to her. She hated herself and often came across as a tough street girl, someone not to be messed with. Shelby had a kind heart; however, and a soft spot for abused animals and homeless people. She would go out of her way to help them. Someone was placing artistic postcards with encouraging messages in her mailbox. She called this mysterious someone, her angel. Shelby does eventually find her way in the world, but not before she nearly destroys herself in the process. Each page is filled, with raw emotion, realistic dialogue, and flawed characters. Although this book can be intensely depressing at times, I found it to be also inspirational. There is a lot of hope; unconditional love and touching moments sprinkled throughout the dark pages of this book. Faithful is a story about penance, redemption, and unconditional love. It is also unforgettable. I received this ARC from the publisher, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.

My New Favorite Book. I stumbled upon this book and ended up finishing it in one day. It is perfect for anyone who is or knows someone who is having a hard time in their late teens to late twenties; whether that be a daughter, a parent, a boyfriend, or a young man. It makes you feel normal and gives you hope. Amazing book.

Faithful. Made me laugh - made me cry - one of the best books that I've read in years!
