The Kindest Lie by Nancy Johnson

slow-paced

3.0

I'm just thrown that this grown ass woman decided that the moment to reveal herself as this child's mother was when he was already just traumatized by a near death experience at the hands of the police! Like...huh????

I thought this book could've been a lot better. I felt for Midnight but didn't really care about him as the book progressed. I thought Ruth was pretty selfish. I hated that she made her sister in law the villain when her brother sounded like a scrub. There were really no very likable characters, and that's okay, but the plot just felt pointless as well.
