Quite an enjoyable story about a foster kid about to age out of the system but unexpectedly finding their family along the way. The first book I’ve ever read about foster care and the experiences of a kid inside the system. Would recommend to anyone who wants to have some hope instilled upon themselves without it being inaccurately representative.
