Story
Charlotte Davis is in pieces. At 17 she's already lost more than most people do in a lifetime. But she's learned how to forget. The broken glass washes away the sorrow until there is nothing but calm. You don't have to think about your father and the river. Your best friend, who is gone forever. Or your mother, who has nothing left to give you. Every new scar hardens Charlie's heart just a little more, yet it still hurts so much. It hurts enough to not care anymore, which is sometimes what has to happen before you can find your way back from the edge.

Story
For all of Emory's life she's been told who she is. In town she's the rich one - the great-great-granddaughter of the mill's founder. At school she's hot Maddie Ward's younger sister. And at home, she's the good one, her stoner older brother Joey's babysitter. Everything was turned on its head, though, when she and Joey were in the car accident that killed Candy MontClaire. The car accident that revealed just how bad Joey's drug habit was.

Story
Being “shook” is more than a rap lyric for Charlamagne; it’s his mission to overcome. While it may seem like he is ahead of the game and should have nothing to worry about, he is still plagued by anxieties - fear of being weak; fear of being a bad dad; fear of being a worse husband; and, ultimately, fear of failure. Shook One chronicles his journey to beat back those fears and empowers you to no longer be held back from your potential.

Publisher's Summary
Hannah knows there's been a mistake. She doesn't need to be institutionalized. What happened to her roommate at that summer program was an accident. As soon as the doctor and judge figure out that she isn't a danger to herself or others, she can go home to start her senior year - those college applications aren't going to write themselves. But until then, she's determined to win over the staff and earn some privileges so that she doesn't lose her mind to boredom.
Then Lucy arrives. Lucy has her own baggage, and she's the perfect project to keep Hannah's focus off all she is missing at home. But Lucy may be the one person who can get Hannah to confront the secrets she's avoiding - and the dangerous games that landed her in confinement in the first place.

Total disappointment
So here's the deal... I rarely ever write reviews after listening to books on Audible. I've always been one to let people decide for themselves based on their individual tastes and interests. However, after finishing this book, I felt compelled to issue a warning. The first two-thirds of this book is fantastic. The story flows well and the depiction of mental illness is pretty spot-on. It's a bit of a head trip figuring out what's going on. However, the last third of this book is a total snooze fest and falls completely flat. While you're waiting for something dramatic or a twist to happen, all you get is a long several hours of repeat storyline, annoying prose, and the same old tired rants of the main character. Literally nothing happens! The book ends without even the slightest of mystery or surprise. It just ends... Honestly, the last few hours of the book ends as if it's an autobiography of somebody in the throes of mental illness instead of what's supposed to be a fictional suspenseful thriller. Huge disappointment!!

Outstanding
When I started this book, I was looking for something to take up some time. Something that I could listen too as I did my normal tasks. But it totally swept me away from the very beginning. This book makes your heart grab onto a character with many faults. With faults, just like the rest of us. It told a story of mental illness, and the fear that rides along with it. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a deeper understanding to people that are dealing with mental illness, to realize that they are just like everyone else, but with added problems they can’t control. An overall outstanding book.

Hopeful
This book was fantastic! A definite MUST read/listen!! It brings mental health/illness into a light from the view of someone who is suffering & battling mental illness. It takes you along a path from diagnosis to treatment. It touches on the feeling's of the one whom is diagnosed, as well as her parents who, are less then happy to learn this is a life-long struggle. However, I love how it gives the reader insight into a disease that for a very many years, and even today, is one that carries a heavy stigma. This book was written so well, that you can picture the book, as if it were a movie, in your minds eye. It also, is such an honest account of the internal struggle with the person who finds out they have a serious mental health disorder. To the struggle their family may go through to learn to accept that it is a life-long battle. However with proper medication & treatment someone can, absolutely live a "normal" productive life. This book was amazingly well written, the type of book that can start the "conversation" that so desperately needs to be, not only started, but continued.
I love how the author did absolutely amazing showing how "Hannah" was affected learning of her diagnosis & trying to understand "what is reality & what is not". And how, her illness is cunning into making her think, she is fine. And her medication "is no longer needed". As alot of mental illnesse disorder's do.
I will absolutely be listening to this book again! As well as referring it to other's. Definitely, a great way to a conversation!
And that is HUGE!

More than YA
A sympathetic look at mental illness. Although it's labeled as YA, even an adult reader ( like me) would find this compelling. I appreciated that the author didn't gloss over the consequences of Hannah's actions, and didn't write a HEA. Very good narrator.
