Middle grade isn’t my favorite, but I’m a big fan of Tahereh Mafi and so i enjoyed this. There were so many quotes in this that i really loved, I just love Mafi’s writing.

-> “Don’t talk to strangers, Mother had always said—especially strange men. Being afraid meant it was okay to forget your manners. If you’re afraid, you never have to be nice. Do you understand?”

-> “Mother often said that she could never be bothered to understand why Alice did the things she did, and now, more than ever, Alice thought never being bothered was a very lazy way to love someone.”
