What It Seems
by Emily Bleeker
Thanks to booksforwardpr and lakeunionpublishing for the gifted copy.
"Tara" is a girl that was adopted by her foster mother at 8 years old. Her foster mother keeps her locked up tight and when she's old enough, teaches Tara how to steal. Even at the age of 20, Tara wears a prosthetic belly to steal bigger items.
Her sole escape is watching a family of Youtubers, the Feely's, late at night while "mother" sleeps. The opportunity presents itself for Tara to try and get an internship with the Feely's- this family she feels could be her own, nice family. Tara escapes and takes this internship.
I did enjoy seeing some of the behind the scene stuff that the family goes through. We know everyone isn't perfect and the Feely's sure aren't off camera. I would have liked to see more from them but the story is more about Tara. Even so, I was captivated throughout!
