I may need a forthnight to emotionally recover from this book, damn! 

At first, the set-up almost felt like a horror story: a far away farm without cell-service, dreams that affect the living, matching golden bracelets... but as you get deeper into the story you start to realise with Mila that you can trust her newly found family. It takes a lot to unpack trauma, but with enough space and a safe environment it may allow you to move past what is holding you back. 

So yeah, I loved this!
