There are two novels in this one book but both are related. The first deals with Erin losing her sister in a car accident. It deals with the emotions of two sisters very different and yet very close and the struggle of letting go of a comatose sister. The second is a year after and the struggles that still exist especially with Erin who is suffering from debilitating headaches. Her counselor is convinced it is because Erin cannot let go of the anger and guilt. But the family is falling apart too...more
"The End of Forever" written by Lurlene McDaniel is in two novels: "Somewhere between life and death" and "Time to Let Go".
As a whole, I really enjoyed this book. It is a very breathtaking story about two sisters, Erin and Amy, who don't particularily like each other veyr much until they realize how much they miss each other when one of them is gone. Later, while Erin tries to cope with her thoughts and feelings about her sister, she tries to overcome barriers of her own. The novel takes you th...more

This was an extremely emotional book. The first half left me bawling and the second half had me crying rivers. The sense of love and family is extremely realistic. The relationships developed between the main protagonists were fully developed. It portrayed the hardships of losing a loved one extremely well compared to others I have read. The book was filled with themes and messages that left me thinking about my own life and relationships. The ending was beautiful and revealed the Erin (the main...more

In this book Erin never liked her sister Amy by her crazy actions and how she was always late to stuff and how messy she was but when Amy gets in a accident Erin regrets everything she has thought of Amy. What I liked about this book was that it showed thoughts of the characters and that it was one of those stories that made u feel like you were reading a true life story.I would recommend this book to people who like novels.
I loved this book, and I'm on my way to reading and buying some more of her books. It was a book that i didn't want to put down, when i started to read it. It was happy, and sad at times, so it never really got boring. It was a book that keep me interested, and make me wonder about things, it also gave me lots of information without spoiling the rest of the book. Lurlene McDaniel is a very good writer, and i enjoy her books.
A really heartbreakings story since both characters are similar to me and my sister. It really brought tears to my eyes. Thanks to my cousin, I can't stop thinking about how Erin felt when she lost Amy and the way how I would act if I lost my sister... This story is really heartbreakingly touching.
Erin is always jellious of amy. amy has the cute boyfriend, and everyone likes her. she is bubbly and always happy. when amy turnes 16 and beggs erin to let her drive ona wet day, erin can't deal with what happens next!
It's very YA but a great one! There were a ton of spelling errors on my Kindle edition but easy to overlook I guess. Great book for young ones coping with the loss of someone special to them like a sibling. I cried. A few times :)
Anyone with a sister will relate to this book. It made me laugh, cry, and fall in love with the characters. Not many books can do that to me. I loved it!
sooo sad... but it make you think about what you feel and how much you appreciate what you have, today! AH-MAY-ZING book!!
this book is so sad i just just teared when they had to bury Amy and how at the last moment Erin saw her move and changed he rmind until it was to late because the already signed the papers to donate her organs. but when she moved it was just a spinal reaction.
I cried a lot in this book, but it was so good, Lurlene McDaniel is one of my most favorite authors :)
This is an awesome book that teaches you to appreciate your family even though you can't stand them
Sad in parts but good. Good book for anyone who has lost a sibling or close friend.

I thought this was good book that showed a family in grief after they had lost their daughter, and sister. A very good read
Fast, easy reads but I like them. Good beach reading, interesting YA books.
This is one of the few books I've ever read which shows reality today. Its about a typical family who suffers a terrible loss and there lifes change forever in one night. The family has to help each othert to be able to confront the challenges in their future.
Both novels in this are very emotional and powerful.
Very good. Sad. Recommendable.

How do u read a book
This book was amazing.
I read these books at a perfect time in my life. So many of my relatives died in a scarily short time period after I spent time with them.
