Review Detail

This book was so many things, but the biggest one in my mind is refreshing. Besides that, it is the most beautiful story I have ever read. Its pages were filled with things that brought so many emotions to light and had moments that will allow everyone to connect with the story and the characters in some way.

Reading Salvaged is an experience. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and so much more. At one point, I was crying so hard I had to stop reading. The scenes with Tammy and Attie's other friends were so much fun. I loved Tammy - she said things how they were. Salvaged is written in alternating points of view - from Attie to Riley - which I absolutely loved. I love alternating POV, and in Salvaged it made the story ten times better. I loved hearing both characters thoughts, and it was fun to see how each saw the others case.

Attie the main character did annoy me at times. She let her insecurities just block her way too much. That aside, she is a character most people, especially teenage girls, can connect with. I also loved how throughout the story she goes through so much, yet her faith in God is rock solid. Riley seriously is a dream guy. You blows so many other literary hotties out of the water! Seriously, if I could ever find a guy just a fraction of how perfect and sweet he was, it would be amazing. Another thing about this book was the fact that Jesus was a main character. When I started reading, I had no idea he would be such a huge part of the book, and the scenes with him grew to be some of my favorite parts of the book.

The story was so heart breaking, but at the same time was a story of such strong growth. I mentioned above how Salvaged was refreshing. Let me tell you why - it was the most perfect love story and you didn't need sex or anything like that to make it so. It was innocent and perfect.

Salvaged was a story filled with amazing characters that I could read about forever. I loved every single character and what they brought to the table. The story is just wow. A single girl has about everything that can go wrong happen to her, but she has the most amazing people in the world to walk through life by her. This is simply one of the best love stories I have ever read.
