This book was not too what I expected it to be and yet it was so much more! The writing style threw me off at first and at moments it felt like a middle schooler was writing (referring to Skye’s language and thoughts) but it makes sense when you consider trauma and her mindset and of course the cultural piece. Mia did an exceptional job of capturing how ones childhood can impact adulthood, attachment, and relationships. I felt with the main character and Vicky. But within those moments this story was hysterical and loved the bond between Skye and Vicky- it was beautiful and authentic.  Her relationships with others were also realistic given the circumstances. Wish I could see them in a few years from where this story ended. A funny, emotional, and heart warming read!
