    I really enjoyed this book. What happened to Willows parents and how she feels about it breaks my heart...i cant imagine living with that pain every day. Some of the quotes in the book had a profound inpact on me. I love Guy! He was an awesome character and i love how he cared so much for Willow, perfect couple. I found the ending with her brother beautiful. Overall awesome book, highly recommend.

    When I got about a chapter or two into this book, I thought I was going to be dissapointed with it, but I was happy to find I got into it about half way through. Then I couldn't put it down. My firends at school kept telling me to "put the book down" and "stop reading." :D I recommned this book to anyone, just be prepared, it might seem slow-moving at first.

    Despite a beginning that had me confused, struggling to figure out whose perspective it was from, and being written in third person and present tense which I can't stand, Willow was an amazing book. It was kinda mature; swear words sprinkled around, a few uber-romantic scenes, and descriptive cutting throughout . . . I wouldn't recommend this for the light-hearted! I liked it, though. :3

    So far, it is a really good book. I can relate to almost EVERYTHING and I feel like it's easier to read because of that.

    This book takes an in-depth look at the emotionally tragedy of a cutter's life. It was very well written and probably portrayed the actual feelings of a cutter very well. I think that anyone would enjoy reading this book if they are able to handle the images that are painted as they read the book. Even though this book was difficult to go through, I was not able to put the book down without wondering what would occur next. The end still leaves me hanging and wondering what will happen to the charcter of Willow and if she will ever get past what troubles her and how she deals with the pain. I really liked this book and would definately read this book again.
