Synopsis: Princess Diana believes that her 16th birthday will be one of new beginnings--namely acceptance into the warrior tribe of Amazons. The celebrations are cut short, however, when rafts of refugees break through the Themysciran barrier. Diana tries to help them, but she is swept away by the sea--and from her home--thus becoming a refugee herself.

Now Diana must survive in the world outside of Themyscira for the first time; the world that is filled with danger and injustice. She must redefine what it means to belong, to be an Amazon, and to make a difference.

Review: Holy cow this book was amazing! I've always been a bit of a fan of Wonder Women and I loved what the author did for this book. The character development was amazing, the story was heart pounding, the world building was expertly done, and all of the diversity and inclusion!! I liked how the author even weaved in real world issues like immigration and child trafficking into this story. I loved this so much!

My only issue is the length. The book is so short and I want more. I feel like with a longer book the author could have done more for the character development of all the characters but it was damn near perfect as is!

Verdict: I definitely recommend this one!
