A dark tragic tale of hope, identity and a boys courage to overcome the odds. I went in expecting more of a YA thriller but instead found a profound, deeply thought provoking book with heart. As someone who works in the mental health, I found this book realistic in its portrayal of trauma and recovery. It took a little while for the book to grip me but once it did I was hooked. I loved the authors writing style and found the book easy to read and found myself flying through the pages. I read it over the course of one afternoon. Prior to this book, this author was unknown to me but after the strength of this one, I will for sure be looking out for other books.
Thank you to Robin Roe, the publisher and Netgalley for an arc of this book.
