Circa was a step outside my reading norm and Devi S. Laskar’s unique voice helped make this a book couldn’t put it down.

Loved it! Fast read that explored the nuances of a first gen Indian American teenage girl growing up in North Carolina under strict, traditional parents. A tragedy alters the course of her life forever, and she is forced to come to terms with it while navigating her life- torn between reckless American teen and obedient daughter. I loved the second person writing, it almost reads like poetry!
