Just loved it. Adina is such a relatable girl (despite being an alien). Watching her grow up via vignettes was magical and so normal at the same time. The writing is incredible.

Loved this one!! It had a really unique concept and, being written by an alien, made some profound observations about human society. Also got me thinking a lot about autism and neurodiversity, and how the world rewards those who conform.
Made me realize I think I enjoy speculative fiction more than I thought! Looking for recs for some more thoughtful, light sci-fi reads to take me into fall 👀

A weird and lovable book. Reminded me of A Psalm for the Wild Built. Heart isn’t from Chicago though :/
