The Vanishing Half has easily become one of my favorite books. The storytelling is unmatched—being able to be inside of the heads of so many characters (even side/miscellaneous characters) was a joy to experience. Love and identity were the true players in this story. What you would do for love vs what you would do for yourself. What you feel vs what you believe. This story is so complex yet also so delicious—such a great read
