Countless
of Karen Gregory (Goodreads Author)
Description
'Is there anything that's concerning you?â Felicity says. âCollege, home, boyfriends?' Though she's more or less smiling at this last one.I don't smile. Instead, I feel my face go hot. Silence stretches as wide as an ocean. When I look up, Felicity has this expression on her face like she's just seen Elvis. Slowly, she leans forward and in a gentle voice I've never heard her use before she says, 'Have you done a pregnancy test?' When Hedda discovers she is pregnant, she doesnât believe she could ever look after a baby. The numbers just donât add up. She is young, and still in the grip of an eating disorder that controls every aspect of how she goes about her daily life. Sheâs even given her eating disorder a name â Nia. But as the days tick by, Hedda comes to a decision: she and Nia will call a truce, just until the baby is born. 17 weeks, 119 days, 357 meals. She can do it, if she takes it one day at a time ⊠Heartbreaking and hopeful by turns, Karen Gregoryâs debut novel is a story of love, heartache and human resilience. And how the things that matter most canât be counted. Perfect for fans of Lisa Williamson, Non Pratt and Sarah Crossan.
