Heartbreaking but beautifully written. The descriptions and landscape made you feel like you were there seeing them, and my heart went out to Leah in her story for what she went thru all the way around. I enjoyed the setting being in Matthews/Charlotte, living nearby. The concept of Eugenics is such an dark period of time in our history, it's enormously sad and horrific but I'm glad a light is being shown on it with books like these.
