The Protected | Claire Zorn
3 posts | 8 read | 2 to read
In a family torn apart by grief and guilt, one girlOCOs struggle to come to terms with years of torment shows just how long old wounds can take to heal. a "I have three months left to call Katie my older sister. Then the gap will close and I will pass her. I will get older. But Katie will always be fifteen, eleven months and twenty-one days old." a HannahOCOs world is in pieces and she doesnOCOt need the school counselor to tell her she has deep-seated psychological issues. With a seriously depressed mother, an injured dad, and a dead sister, who wouldnOCOt have problems? Hannah should feel terrible but for the first time in ages, she feels a glimmer of hope and isnOCOt afraid anymore. Is it because the elusive Josh is taking an interest in her? Or does it run deeper than that?"

In 2014, I returned to complete my masters, my second son finished yr 12 at the same school as me, and both made the time difficult. I only read about 24 #loveozya novels and The Protected was my highlight. A story of grief and overcoming guilt, and the blue mountains of NSW setting was vivid and memorable. Hannah is an astonishing depiction of vulnerability. Another fav is Intruder by Chris Bongers. #tenbooksonedecade #2014

I started 2016 with The Protected, and finished with various SF magazines and graphic novels (my favorite, I think, being Ms. Marvel). Highlights of this year have included books by N K Jemisin, Seanan MacGuire, Nnedi Okorafor, Courtney Milan, Lois McMaster Bujold, James S A Corey, Charlotte Wood, Elizabeth Hodgson, and more. Favourite anthology: Defying Doomsday.
