This book made me sad and confused. 😭 But I enjoyed it and I am so ready for the next one!

Nona is very childlike, which made her a challenging POV, especially because yet again the reader is in a new place with new(ish) people. Additionally, she is friends with a bunch of kids, which for me, was emotionally challenging to read. My mom side was very activated the entire time I was reading, and that made the story sweet but also very hard to digest at times. The setting is very post-apocalyptic/refugee camp/war zone this time, so that was another layer of realism that made Nona an uncomfortable read.

Also we have more body swapping which like… 😅 I’m in desperate need of a diagram to track who is in which container.
