"Our lips crush together, and as his kiss consumes me, he breathes oxygen onto my lungs. My heart starts to race. I'm alive. This is living."Emotional. Heart Wrenching. Beautiful. These are the words that I use to describe Skipping Stones. I was a huge fan of JB McGee before this book. I had read her This Trilogy and loved her writing, but I love her even more now. She has taken me on a journey of loss like no other author has. It's true what they say, grab your tissues for this book. I cried through the whole thing. Sad tears, happy tears, tears for all of the heartache that Alex faces.How do I tell you how much this book touched me without spoiling it for you?I lost my Dad when I was twenty-four, and on that dreadful morning my mother had a heart attack. This book touched the depths of my soul. It made me relive my own loss, but it also made me remember all the good times spent with my Dad. Death is inevitable, it's the time you are alive that matters. Make the most of it. Love hard, Laugh lots, and Never Forget.This book is a journey of a young girl who faces loss young. She fights to move on and overcome this tragedy. When she meets Drew, he is the only thing that keeps her going, fighting. He is the light that fills her darkness. The book ends fifteen years later and so I don't spoil anything for you this is all I can really tell you of the book. I will say this, Read it, Love it, and recommend it to others.I am giving this wonderful story 5 Stars!  ~Jen
