Description

Something Happened Here was written for girls who want to, or have ever wanted to, disappear. It follows the story of 17 year-old nothing, Sally Fawn, through ink sketches, poetry, and intimate narrative as she returns to her abandoned childhood home with only the desire to disappear. Home was on the derelict Highway 340 in rural Nova Scotia, Canada. Home was dirt, centipedes, and sad dogs, but not Mom. Home was Desiree, who she abruptly had to leave in 5th grade after Dad disappeared into the black Atlantic. That summer, Sally discovers that her home now belongs to someone else. A forcefully charming man named Leon Vaughn, and his jealous dog, Lady. Sally tells him that she's 18. 17 is close enough, right? Leon tells Sally that she's 19. Something Happened Here reveals the untold story of an invisible girl in an invisible town in rural Nova Scotia, where crime is underreported and when someone disappears, they are forgotten forever. Something Happened Here echoes the voices of women and girls who have been silenced by abuse. Your voice echoes, and it carries power. Read more

    • This is a tragically beautiful novel from start to finish.

It's been far too long since I've read a book that's hard to put down. I finished this novel in two days, and definitely would've finished it in one sitting if I didn't sleep. It's real, raw, tragically poetic, and familiar. It's relatable in a way you wish wasn't. It's beautiful. I love how it's written just like a girl writing in her journal- thought after thought, unpredictable emotions, confusion, and finally understanding. This novel reminds me of that quote. "Art that disturbs the comfortable but comforts the disturbed." (Or something along those lines) I was definitely comforted. I will re-read this forever. Thank you for being a writer. (Also, the art is captivating. It was my second favorite part of this read, the first being the poem breaks.) ... show more

The first time I laid my eyes on this book, I immediately noticed how beautifully the cover was illustrated, and when I read "a book written whiling listening to alice in chins” I didn't hesitate to put in in my cart. The title, the cover, the drawings, truly illustrated by someone so passionate und creative, the author knew she had to share it with everyone. The attention to detail in the drawings, and Sally’s words were unbelievable. The author herself was clever and knew what she was doing when I saw the connection to some of my favorite songs. This book definitely opened something in me that was deeply hidden. I need this engraved into my skin. This book brings out the truths, the lies, honestly, fables, beauty, flaws, and the messy. It was real, raw and brutal and poetic in a way. The author shared this story in a beautiful, breathtaking way that even I can’t explain. It’s about accepting, growing, strength and friendship. ... show more
