Palak's Reviews > Someone's Story

I want to thank the author, B. A Bellec, for contacting me to do write an honest review in exchange for a free copy of Someone's Story. I've read this novel and the following review is based on only my opinions and is completely honest!

The first thing that I noticed about Someone's Story is that the writing style is completely different from anything that I have ever read. It's formatted more in the way your brain thinks - short, precise sentences while conveying what it whats you to understand and feel. This unique style of writing is something I don't think I've ever encountered before and it made the story even more relatable. He effectively combined topics like mental health, anxiety, teen pregnancy, unstable family life, etc., to show how today's young generation especially teens struggle adjusting to the rules that society has put out knowingly and unknowingly. And seeing that I am a high school teen, this book connected with how I felt and I enjoyed reading how Someone (how the main character of this novel wanted to be called) worked hard and overcame every difficulty thrown in his path even if it took him some time to realize his mistake.

This is a novel that will pull your heart in multiple directions and will make you so emotional and connected with the book that you won't know where the fiction world ends and reality starts. Thank you, B. A Bellec, for giving me the honor of reading your novel! This powerful story is what I needed to show me that it's ok for me to struggle and to feel hopeless but it also showed me not to forget that every problem has a solution only if you work hard for it.
