Addie has always known what she was running toward. In cross-country, in life, in love. Until she and her boyfriend—her sensitive, good-guy boyfriend—are careless one night and she ends up pregnant. Addie makes the difficult choice to have an abortion. And after that—even though she knows it was the right decision for her—nothing is the same anymore. She doesn’t want anyone besides her parents and her boyfriend to know what happened; she doesn’t want to run cross-country; she can’t bring herself to be excited about anything. Until she reconnects with Juliana, a former teammate who’s going through her own dark places.
Ask Me How I Got Here ended up on my TBR because I needed a quick book to read. I’m not typically a fan of books written in verse and I think that’s probably why I didn’t love this one. It had potential to be more than it was though it was by no means, bad.
Pros:
Cons:
Overall, Ask Me How I Got Here was not one for me but I can see why it’s been getting quite a bit of love from some other bloggers. The poetry was great and the story was definitely something that appealed to me but it just fell flat in some areas.
