I have now officially read all 4 of the books written by Carrie (thus far - I hope there’s more to come!) and I enjoyed this one just as much as her others even though it was different. This book was a heartfelt coming-of-age novel that had themes of identity, family dynamics, and the transformative power of unexpected relationships. I thought this was inspiring and thought-provoking. I loved seeing Ben’s growth throughout the story and how Ren helped him to heal. I also loved Ren’s “rules” and advice she gave Ben to help him navigate his new world.
