This book was DEVASTATING and I loved every single page! Mary H. K. Choi's writing is ethereal, expertly weaving backstory within the frame of the immersive current timeline. The story was engaging and emotional, filling readers with pity and sympathy for the main character. Jayne was the absolute WORST, BUT her character growth and personal development were unparalleled, showing a troubled teen girl that I cannot help but empathize with. This book will stay with me for a while, and I encourage curious readers to pick it up after checking out content warnings!
