A heavy coming of age YA story that explores religious bigotry and breaking toxic cycles while facing extreme hardship. This book was both heartbreaking and infuriating but didn't impact me as much as others claimed it would.

I'm not going to give a true review because I had to finish the book for class, with that being said had it not being for class the book probably would've been marked 'dnf'.
