I'm not sure how to feel about this book. I get that it was trying to tell an intergenerational story from different perspectives and time periods, and I loved its depiction of "it takes a village" being lived out for real. But it felt disjointed and slow, and it took me so long to get into it. The back third of the book felt meaningful, and I became attached to Mika's story, but this wasn't very memorable all in all.
