This was good! A super quick, engaging read that offered a somewhat predictable but still important and enjoyable look at discovering your family heritage isn't what you thought it was — and, more than that, learning that your parents are humans who make terrible mistakes sometimes, and finding how to move past that. I will say that everything felt a little flat overall, which is why this wasn't a 5-star read, but I'm feeling that way about a lot of novels in verse lately, so perhaps my tastes are just changing? *sigh*

Also, the love interest in this story is Tlingit (Native) and his character is inspired by the author's own Tlingit husband, which I just thought was sweet. That's a representation I've never seen in a story before and while I certainly can't speak for if it was accurate or well-done, I thought it was a nice addition, especially after learning who had inspired the character. ♥

Thank you so much to the publisher for providing me with this review copy in exchange for an honest review!
