4.5

This book was absolutely wow. I like going into my books with little to no background knowledge and this book was a journey like non other. I felt deeply for Lily and her past.

Her story was absolutely heartbreaking and really spoke heavily on the multiple issues those within the Trans community have to continuously face at the hands of bigotry.

Check those trigger warnings.

When I started reading this I was confused, having been a Jodi Picoult fan for years, because it seemed to so closely parallel The Pact. I actually thought she wrote a book piggy backing an already successful novel. Anyway- it grew on me and has pieces so unexpected I couldn’t stop reading.
