*I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review*
Peral, a young ghost follows the life of Frankie, her sister Toni and brother Vito who live in a Chicago orphanage during The Great Depression, and World War II. After their father remarries, they come back for Vito, but leave Frankie and Toni behind.
I was initially really intrigued by the concept of the narrator being a ghost... but this book was just not for me. I was bored and did not care about anyone or anything going on in this story. I felt that it was incredibly slow and there are so many subplots going on, I quickly lost track of what the point was. I did like the female friendships in this, but that was about all I enjoyed. I just feel that it was a very convoluted attempt at a message about females being lesser than males and how much they struggle.
Not for me, but may be for you!
