I really loved how this story was told. A great example of two POV narration done really well. I thought the characters were well developed and was very emotional towards at the end.
I will admit that I was overly bothered by some logistical questions that any normal person wouldn’t be as fixated on. How did we get Norma a social security card? Does she have a birth certificate? She would have needed these things for school and employment at least. Where did we tell the neighbors she came from?
This is somewhere between a 4 and 5 star for me. Might edit rating later once it settles.

This was an interesting and relaxing read. A subject I’ve never read about before too.
