Two Thousand Lines
Michelle Jester
Publication date: November 21st 2019
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance, Young Adult

Olivia Brooks has been able to keep her life in Sugar Mill, Louisiana held perfectly together, far away from the small town where she grew up. Even though her past still haunts her, she has found a perfect process of surviving, until a string of events brings Luke Plaisance to Sugar Mill and turns her organized life upside down.

While Olivia fights to hold on to the life she’s created, unraveling it may be exactly what it takes for her to truly survive. She must accept her past in order to live, or let it threaten the only future she’s ever wanted. Because some secrets can’t stay buried… and shouldn’t.

An inspiring and heartbreaking tale of abandonment, survival, and purpose. A harrowing journey of self-discovery and perseverance.




My Review: 

Two Thousand Lines tell the story of how one woman survived an abusive home growing up. Two Thousand Lines is Olivia Brooke’s story of all the abuse that she endured from her step-father, Mr. Melvin. The title Two Thousand Lines does not even come close to hinting at the punishment that Olivia suffered from the hands of her step-father.

Two Thousand Lines is a story that some will not be able to read as it is so heart wrenching. The hurt and pain that Olivia had to go through was more than anyone should ever have to experience especially a child.

Two Thousand Lines tells Olivia’s story in the present and in the past. The past shows us the abuse she suffered. The future shows us how she is dealing with the past and how she is handling it all now,

I loved what Olivia was doing at the veterinary clinic of how she was helping the animals and their owners as well of the things she did that helped her to deal with her past. I thought it was a wonderful way to handle what she had been through or at least it was for her.

Two Thousand Lines is a book that will touch your heart, it will break your heart but it will also make you proud of a certain young woman and how she deals with all of it. For someone who has been through so much she sure does have a big heart with a lot of love to give even if she doesn’t know this.

If you can read stories like Olivia’s then I highly recommend Two Thousand Lines or any of Michelle Jester’s novels. Two Thousand Lines is my second book by Michelle that I have read, Love, Cutter was the first and I have to say that I really liked both very much they will stay with me for  a long time to come.
