Thanks to Delacorte Press and Hear Our Voices Book Tours for this advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

"I don’t want to go backward, Nelo. That is not where goodness exists. Sometimes things have to change to get better."

I love stories where I get to watch characters grow into their own and this was just that and a little more.

The relationships between Nelo, Kate, Bo and Rafa were beautifully done and reminded me so much of some of my own. It was great to watch them come back together and grow even stronger as their own little found family. I also really loved the community of Ginger East and how much of a tight support system they were for one another.

This was a great story about growth and change, how inevitable it can be and how sometimes it can work in ways you don’t expect. I enjoyed spending time in Ginger East and would read more adventures with Nelo and her friends if I could.
