The Names They Gave Us by Emery Lord

4.0

Such a great read. I'm pretty sure I read all 388 pages in the span of 2 days - which for me is pretty good. I just couldn't put it down and found it captivating.

(I must say, if you come to my reviews or come across my reviews in hope of a balanced review, you'll be disappointed. I'll either love a book or hate it, so my opinion will be strong and will not give a balanced review. Sorry)

This story shows how confusing life can be and how we aren't always the people we think we are - and thats ok! I love how we see Lucy grow from the pain she holds about her mother and how she sees life from a different perspective when she meets Jones.

Definitely a comfort read!
