What if your life wasnt your own?
Liv comes out of a coma with no memory of her past and two distinct, warring voices inside her head. Nothing, not even her reflection, seems familiar. As she stumbles through her junior year, the voices get louder, insisting she please the popular group while simultaneously despising them. But when Liv starts hanging around with Spencer, whose own mysterious past also has him on the fringe, life feels complete for the first time in, well, as long as she can remember.
Liv knows the details of the car accident that put her in the coma, but as the voices invade her dreams, and her dreams start feeling like memories, she and Spencer seek out answers. Yet the deeper they dig, the less things make sense. Can Liv rebuild the pieces of her broken past, when it means questioning not just who she is, but what she is?
Synopsis
Liv comes out of a coma with no memory of her past. Nothing, not even her reflection, seems familiar. As she stumbles her way through her junior year in high school, she struggles with who she is and where she fits in. She has the strangest need to please the popular group while despising them at the same time. When she starts spending time with Spencer, a boy who also used to be part of the in-crowd but whose own mysterious past now has him on the fringe, her life starts to feel complete for the first time in, well, as long as she can remember.
Mom and Dad have told Liv about the terrible car accident she was in, but it doesnt explain all the bizarre things that keep happeninglike the vivid dreams that feel more like memories and the two disparate voices that war inside her head. When Liv goes to Mom and Dad for answers, all she gets is more questions. But as she and Spencer begin to dig deeper, the less anything in her life makes sense.
What Liv finally uncovers is that she is half perky cheerleader and half brainy loner. Literally. In a desperate attempt to save two nearly dead car wreck victims, her brilliant neurosurgeon parents used their surgical skills to transplant a heart and a large section of the brain from one girl to the other. Out of two girls become one. The daughter they always wanted.
Synopsis
"All the Broken Pieces kept me guessing and frantically flipping the pages. It's a unique story with layered characters I couldn't help but fall in love with." -Nyrae Dawn, author of Charade
