"Laura Smith speaks for the broken. With a voice that’s warm and true, Laura gives words to those rendered speechless by issues that high school and college girls should never have to deal with—but so many of them do. In writing that’s raw, relevant, and real, Smith goes where few authors dare to straight into the heart of today’s young woman." – Amy Parker, best-selling author
"Contemporary university problems and family drama touch each of the main characters in IT'S OVER, the second installment in Laura L. Smith’s Status Updates series. Smith continues the graceful journey she started in IT'S COMPLICATED, and her readers will find lessons on every page. Female friendships, family love, and trust in God bring Smith’s characters through again!" ~Laura Anderson Kurk, author of GLASS GIRL
"In IT'S OVER, Laura Lynn Smith confirms the truth we've been told that we are never alone in the midst of heartache and struggle. In fact, she takes us to a place where we not only get to see, but feel deeply the truth of the fact that every single one of us has a story. Every single one of us has experienced pain. But more importantly, that every single one of us has great hope. Laura Lynn Smith's writing strikes a deep chord in my heart. It makes sense. It's real -- and in my opinion, that transparency makes all the difference." ~ Holly Starr, Christian recording artist
