My Review:
I'm so glad Raebeth had the courage to write such a heartfelt story.There is a growing epidemic of teen depression,cutting and suicide. Many parents are not aware of what there teen is going through or if they do know they don't understand it.I understand the overwhelming feeling that comes from depression because I have dealt with it since middle school and now I have a bipolar teenager who has done cutting.
Amber was doing well fighting her addition to cut until she lost her best friend Sarah.Now the darkness is creeping in again and taking over.Landon tries to help but then starts to pull away.Amber must find in herself the strength to overcome this depression and cutting addition.

SILENCED 2:The Overtaking is a story of healing,forgiveness,overcoming those hings that seek to pull us down,and most of all it is story of HOPE!
