AFTER THE FIRE is a compelling, yet flawed book. September im Nordosten Englands) lebt in London zum Buch: 'AFTER THE FIRE' (2017) Young Adult Book Prize 2018 Story Inhalt Inhalt Schwer verletzt liegt die 17-Jhrige Moonbeam im Krankenhaus und sieht sich einem Psychologen und einem FBI-Agenten gegenber. I wish Hill had done better research of psych hospitals and PTSD treatment. Moonbeam’s psychiatric treatment took a backseat to the agent’s questions.

As much as I enjoyed AFTER THE FIRE, the entire book was basically Moonbeam recounting cult life before and after. This made me a cringe and distracted me from the storytelling. Although doctors observed behind a two-way mirror, a sexual assaulter would NEVER be allowed to be alone with a victim, particularly a younger girl. One red flag I can’t overlook is when the psych hospital put the survivors together for unsupervised social interacted. Powerful, gripping, and beautifully told, bestselling author Will Hills After The Fire is a novel about love, hope, loss and, ultimately, courage. Will Hill kept my interest for most of the story, but I skimmed the parts of the cult doctrines and the nitty-gritty details of the teachings because that level of detail was not material to Moonbeam’s journey. AFTER THE FIRE is a powerful, compelling story of a girl on the brink of adulthood who knows nothing but life inside the abusive cult, what happened before and during the fire and how Moonbeam is surviving AFTER THE FIRE. Moonbeam just wants to know what happened to her mother.

Her psychiatrist wants to help her through the trauma while an FBI agent wants answers to complete his investigation. 3.5 STARS Moonbeam and several other minors survived the fire that killed sixty-seven fellow cult members.
