Oh boy. I have some issues with this book. But I don't want to offend this author or hinder others from reading it. I considered just not writing a review, but for ppl who read romance and esp NA/YA, I feel like I owe you a review.
My first issue is mostly a pet peeve. This book takes place in America, but the author is most likely not American. This alone doesn't bother me, but the sayings and wordage just don't match the setting. Things like, "Mum, bloody ...more

Wow! This story is a heartbreaking depiction of teenage life and how they process and deal with some difficult situations. Parts of this story were really hard for me to read. It's so raw and real seeing these teens and all that they have to endure. There was a myriad of emotions that were prevalent in the story - anger, loss, guilt and remorse. As heartbreaking as it was, it was also a heartwarming romance between two beautiful souls.

Why don't English authors write about England? I kept feeling that the author was not from the United States because the slang and vernacular was not right. We don't call concerts "gigs" as an example.
Still the bullying in a high school was the main focus and our girl, Erin really was a target. Author does a great job of showing how hard it is to be a target of bullying. The one who is bullied feels alone as the others are just glad to not be a target.

When We Fall had me sucked in right from the get go. At page three I was already dying to read more.
This story is heartbreaking and will take you back to the times of being a teenager. It's real and raw painting us a picture of what some going through high school can face. It's not always pretty and sometimes you have to weather the storm and sometimes you break.

To be honest I didn't feel a connection with the characters in this book, especially with Erin. I didn't understand how she could just brush something so sensitive and crucial under the rug and just keep going knowing full well what was going to continue happening and not do anything about it. I get it, it's not easy and sometimes your self-esteem isn't strong enough for you to be a strong person.

What a story! This is exactly what I needed to jump back into reading. A really well told story that was just so good.
Erin is an awesome character. She’s in high school and getting so much agro from people in her year. She’s never deserved all the bullying yet it hasn’t stopped throughout the years.
Mason is sex on legs. Needing to turn his life around he finds himself moving house and moving school. This brings him to Erin and his whole life changes.

I always like getting the chance to read something by an author who is new to me. In this case, I got the chance to read When We Fall by Sloane Murphy, whom I'd never read before, and I don't think this will be last Sloane Murphy book.

I think nearly everyone can relate to this story.
If not then you will get what others feel when they are bullied and can understand what their life can be like.
It took me a while to know what to write for this review because I still really cannot put into words how it made me feel.
Read this its amazing and really made me open my eyes on what young people can go through especially in school.
Well done to the author who tackled this subject sensitively and extremely well.

This is my first book by Sloane Murphy a.k.a Olivia Rose (the pen name she is writing under). What attracted me to When We Fall was first, the blurb and second, the cover, so keeping in mind the content of the burb I had a certain mindset regarding the story it somewhat lived up to it.

Wow! This book was not exactly what I was expecting, but it ended up being much more. A story of young love, tragedy, bullying, and finding a path in life.
I have to say that I love the cover of this book, its beautiful. I also absolutely loved the quote at the beginning of the book. “To be nobody-but-yourself – in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else – means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.” E. E. Cummings ...more

Wow!! What have I just read? This story was amazing. It was full of hurt, anger, torment, happiness, friendship and love. These characters were simply amazing. I connected with Erin on such a level I was bullied to a point I was so ill and I lost a lot of my hair due to the stress and anxiety of it. Erin for me is one of my favourite heroines to date due to her fight, strength and her ability to be kind even in the most torturous moments. I thank Olivia Rose for writing this wonderful character

Y'all... I just... This book restored my faith in humanity a little bit. I have 3 girls and my middle daughter will be heading to middle school soon and I worry for her. Mean girls are real and being victimized by Regina George can't always be laughed off in real life. So When We Fall truly hit home in a real and deep way for me. Now, let me take a second and tell you something else - Mason Knight is EVERYTHING. He alone is worth the price of admission, but this book was so much more than that.

For me, When We Fall by Olivia Rose left some things unfinished. Or rather, without explanation. WWF is the first book on the Rocky Falls Series, so things may be explained on next one.
I don't feel comfortable writing reviews for books I don't like. My opinion is mine, doesn't mean others won't like. I encourage everyone to read it and reach their own conclusion.

Erin micheals is someone some of us can relate to. Being bullied just because your not the popular kid ignored in class and in the halls by most of the school and when she is noticed its not for good reasons, but to torment her. Erin says she can deal with it though she only has 1 yr left of school right? Right then its off to collage and all will be different, well even the most carefully planned of plans dont wirk out.

Omg I have never related so much to characters as I did with the characters in this book. I'm ashamed to say I've done both , but Erin spoke to me shes just good inside and out and to see her struggle with what she should and shouldn't do and if she deserves happiness. Mason is an old soul do to his up bringing but it's what's made the kind soul he is, but there's still a back story there and I hope we find out and I hope we aren't done with this couple.

I loved Mason and Erin. They’re great and the things they endure... it’s true and it’s real. I loved that about this book, that it didn’t hide the things that do go on, that do happen.
Where it fell down for me was it felt rushed. I’d love to see everything more fleshed out. I felt things turned too quickly or were kind of swept over when they should’ve been given the time and attentio ...more

In walks Mason, the new boy in town, and he changes everything for her in so many ways. The emotions the reader feels while reading this book

As if navigating your way through high school isn't heard enough...being bullied constantly makes it a nightmare.

I love so many things about this read. Erin and Murphy are wonderful. There story delves into real social issues of our time such as bullying, mental illness, abandonment, violence and death. All these elements produced a variety of emotions. My momma bear came out at times and I wanted to see some justice (eek).

Whaaaat? That is what this book made me think a lot. When We Fall is an interesting novel, but did frustrate me at times. Now I feel it is my duty to mention the following. There are triggers in this book for some. This book explores bullying, which can be a sensitive topic. If you do not like to read about these situations, then turn around. Now if you are okay, then continue.
