This was such a good book. It went in totally different ways from what I expected from reading the blurb. I also learned a lot and have some research to do into the history about if that Chinese PR thing is true or not. I liked how real it was. I like how May had to come to terms with the fact that she wasn’t as open and supportive of her best friend as she’d thought she was. I really feel this would be a great read/addition to the award nominees for next year, so I really hope it makes that final cut!
