Within the pages of Kristen
Matthews’
new book, The
Part of Me Kept Hidden Away ($17.99, paperback, 9781545641781;
$8.99, ebook, 9781545641798), readers will find the story of a girl whose life
is changed drastically when her country is attacked and she is carried away
with the captivity to a foreign land. Despite being made a slave, the girl is
determined to never lose sight of who she truly is.
The Part of Me Kept Hidden
Away is a coming-of-age story full of betrayal, love, secrets,
and surprising revelations. What readers should take away is that we all have a
choice on how we will live our lives; we can choose to be either victims or
victors.
“My story tells of the value
of living honorably and nobly in the face of adversity and the joy that is
obtained through living by such a code of character, and how lives are affected
positively by one life that seeks to live above the circumstances,” says
Matthews.
Kristen Matthews’ love of
writing and story-telling began when she was selected to be placed in a
creative writing setting in school. Her short stories were submitted in a
contest, and she won second place. It was then that she realized she wanted to
become an author.
