Speechless
By Hannah Harrington
Everyone knows that Chelsea Knot can’t keep a secret...
Until now. Because the last secret she shared turned her into a social outcast- and nearly got someone killed.
Now Chelsea has taken a vow of silence- to learn to keep her mouth shut, and to stop hurting everyone else. And if she thinks keeping secrets is hard, not speaking up when she’s ignored, ridiculed and even attacked is worse.
But there’s strength in silence, and in new friends who are shockingly coming her way. People she never noticed before. A boy she might even fall for. If only she can forgive herself.
My review
Wow. I read this book in a couple of hours and it is one that will stay with me for a long time.
Speechless is about Chelsea who is part of the popular crowd until she shares what she saw at a party and it ends in someone getting hurt. Doing the right thing by telling the police who did it Chelsea loses all her friends who then turn around and bully her. So she wont hurt anyone else Chelsea takes a vow of silence which completely changes her life. She learns that the things she thought mattered in her life don’t really and that if she applies her self she can do anything.
Speechless is a book that I think everyone should read as it’s a prefect example of one small thing being said or done that can radiate into something much bigger. Hannah Harrington does a brilliant job of tackling the bullying issue in this book and I will defiantly be recommending it as one of the must read books this year.
5/5
