4.5

Midnights With You by Clare Osongco was a beautiful look into finding oneself and learning what you need. Narrated from Deedee's perspective, it gives the reader a clear and easy insight into how figuring out one's truths is doubly hard when you've been emotionally abused. Deedee struggles to figure out how to be authentic without being too much/revealing her home reality, but she also wants to know more about her mom's past and family. The characters in the novel are relatable. The story is not fast-paced, but it still grips you and pulls you in, holding you tight until you finish.
If I could, I would rate this 4.5. Thank you to #NetGalley for the advanced reader's copy of this book.
