I so love this book. It shocked me I was through in one sitting. Not your everyday same-old read, but neither are people the same.

Thank you Netgalley for the arc of this upcoming read!

Although this story is told through a perspective much unlike my own, I found common ground with the sense of identity and self. To yearn to belong is human, and that was just stunning.

I enjoyed the concept of being bi-racial in America and not technicality fitting in with either group. It was everything that I was hoping for and thought the characters were realistic. I was engaged with the story and enjoyed the way James Ungurait wrote this, it left me wanting to read more from him and glad I read this.
