Giving "Home Is Not a Country" a proper review is difficult, all I can say is that it was beautifully written yet heartbreaking as it dealt with some heavy topics such as grief and racism. I wasn't expecting the magical realism half way through but it gave the story a whole different meaning. I highly recommend this book, especially to those who enjoy books in verse.
