A truly inspiring story. Sometimes we complained about our lives without knowing some have it more difficult and still fight. I learned a lot form this story. Recommended 4 Stars

Teagan Story Her Battle With Epilepsy eBook Talia Jager Reviews

very compelling read. I could not tell if it was actually a memoir or the product of Jager's imagination. The ending is almost too formulaic but I enjoyed reading the book
There are so few stories that show the courage of people with epilepsy. This is a beautifully written story that not only touches the heart but also educates the mind. Readers can almost experience the the different types of epilepsy with the characters as we read this book and we certainly feel the struggles of people with epilepsy. This is the first piece of fiction that I've read where the author actually chose to make epilepsy the struggle that moves the reader. Most authors would not "take on" such a highly stigmatized disease. I enjoyed the book and did not put it down until I finished it.
Since I am an epileptic, I relate to this book. Teagan's parents die, my mother is gone. I also changed to a public school as Teagan does. I would recommend this book.
The story is s melodramatic teen romance but it has some good points about living with epilepsy. However, I feel the author glossed over a few issues of living with seizures.
I choose to read this book as a parent whose child has epilepsy. I continue to be curious as to what my som experiences. What he potentially feels, before and after. This book was a great in site to that although fictional. I would recommend to others!
I gave this book a five star rating and would have given it a higher rating if possible. I have never read anything about epilepsy before, I really learned a lot about it. Never realized what a person went through with this disease. Was very well written and will be enjoyed by everyone and will be very encouraging for those who have this disease or have someone in their family who does.
Teagan is a maturing teenager who begins her junior year of high school after being home schooled all her life because of severe epilepsy. After her parents are killed by a drunk driver Teagan moves in with her older brother and his wife who take care of her. Lacking both the time and ability to continue the home schooling, Teagan is placed in normal school for the first real time in her life.

This story is emotionally deep and gripping. Teagan is a strong character both in her vulnerabilities (epilepsy and having to be dependent on others), as well as her strengths which are led by a fierce desire to be just a normal girl. Her close friends and supporters are equally real and tangible. We can easily picture ourselves interacting with them and speaking to them.

Clearly teen oriented and written for the teen market, it is a story that adults can also enjoy and relate to well, including this 46 year old male author who was brought to tears during some very moving scenes.

While the scenes in school and at camp seemed a bit rushed, almost used as a stage for Teagan's bouts of epilepsy, this is a small sacrifice to pay when the emotional depth of the story is so powerful.

Anyone who can remember being picked on in school will relate to Teagan and her personal issues. And anyone who can remember the heat and roller coaster passions of teen love will relate to the developing romance that Teagan and her young man of choice experience.

The emotional narrative, unwritten but omnipresent that Mrs. Jager weaves so delicately into the story is immaculately crafted. Feeling everything that her characters are feeling is nearly impossible to avoid.

This author gives this novel a happy 4/5 and both truly enjoyed it cheerfully recommends it!
