I know this book has a lot to offer, is exceptionally written, and tells such a unique story, but I couldn’t give it the love and attention it deserved. This is a work of historical fiction and it’s just infuriating that things that were happening in the story were literally taking place all over the news as I was reading this, and I just couldn’t get the escapism I needed. 

It touched on intergenerational trauma and talks about the story holders of each generation which I thought was an interesting addition, but I kind of wish we explored the other generations a bit more than we were able to. If you’re interested in reading this, please please PLEASE look at trigger warnings.
