I obtained an e-ARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an unbiased review.
An immersive and emotional read about a boy's separation from his birth family, his integration into his new one, and finding his way home. It didn't make me cry, but I was invested in it 100% all the way through. Here's hoping it actually managed to cure my reading slump, but I don't have high hopes.
The writing feels choppy and fragmented at the start, but I promise it all ties together in the end. Both the story and writing are compelling enough that I might read the adult version one day.
