I really enjoyed this book, especially from the perspective as an adoptee. Though categorized as romance, make sure you check the trigger warnings before reading. I thought Mika was a relatable likeable character and I liked the overall exploration of mother/daughter relationships (both between Mika and her mother and Penny and Mika).
