I don't have enough words to express the emotions this evoked. To think this is her debut novel!!! It was raw, beautiful, heartbreaking, and everything in-between. She did such a phenomenal job showing how two worlds collide in a way where both can be true, both can be incredible, and both can have significant flaws. Her passion for all the characters in the story shines through, I really feel there were no stones unturned, no lose ends that leave me wondering about story or message.
It is not an easy read with all the heart-clenching, fist-curling ups and downs, but I feel like I have also made it through a storm at the end or this book.
Wow. Wow. Wow!!!!
