Losing Faith by Denise Jaden


Losing Faith ... is about a family, in particular a younger sister dealing with the sudden and unexpected death of a loved one.

The circumstances surrounding Faith's death are odd and her young sister Brie is on a quest to find out exactly what happened on that fateful night.

The grief is real, many of the characters easy to relate too and the storyline is interesting. Expect to read this in one sitting.

The words fly off the pages as the mystery unravels.


Grade: A

Synopsis [B&N]

A terrible secret. A terrible fate.

When Brie's sister, Faith, dies suddenly, Brie's world falls apart. As she goes through the bizarre and devastating process of mourning the sister she never understood and barely even liked, everything in her life seems to spiral farther and farther off course. Her parents are a mess, her friends don’t know how to treat her, and her perfect boyfriend suddenly seems anything but.

As Brie settles into her new normal, she encounters more questions than closure: Certain facts about the way Faith died just don't line up. Brie soon uncovers a dark and twisted secret about Faith’s final night...a secret that puts her own life in danger.
