This book threw me at first with how quickly it cycled between POVs, but I quickly got used to it. Shining light on an overlooked tragedy, such depth of emotion was displayed from the characters that was really moving. Their stories felt incredibly real and was clear a lot of research had been done. I especially enjoyed the growth and character development. I would recommend it to anyone.
