Marcie and Thor are a team or so it seems to Marcie. The trouble is, she's real and Thor isn't. Abandoned by her mum and pulling away from her dad who grows distant, Marcie finds herself seeking friendship and comfort and that comes from her old imaginary though up friend Thor, a boy with bear arms, arms of comfort and warmth it seems.
I am unsure whether Marcie is suffering with her own mental health alike her dad whom seems depressed throughout the novel. Marcie does talk with others around her but seems to never allow herself to get close to anyone which seems likely to the factor of her mother not being in her life now.
This is a book anyone can relate to as I'm sure we all yearn at some point to be a carefree child again needing to be taken care of and not have to face all life's responsibilities thrust our way.
Many thanks to the publishers for her allowing me to review this book for them!
