I enjoyed the plot and writing. The characters all had very well rounded personalities and had intricate journeys. Which i found impressive as all of them had different perspectives and values. 

The conversations of grief, family, racism and black history was all thought provoking and insightful. 

I was very much thrown for a curve at the halfway point when the reveal shifts the story and it was very well done. 

I will be keeping an eye on this authors!

I really enjoyed this. I really liked Happi and how she struggled and felt guilty. There was random povs that I was kind of confused why they were there. Like they made sense especially one later one but it was kind of weird. As the the second half of the book I was a little shocked because I had that thought but I was like well no way it that going to happen because it was I thought out of left field for this type of book usually but I liked it. I do wish the epilogue was a little different and we got to see some interactions.
