A Hope Divided by Alyssa Cole

5.0

- It was so interesting to read this since I live in the general area the book is set! It also really made me think about how the characters in this book could easily be someone I know's great great  grandparents.
- I loved the root work and chemistry/botany in this book so much. The overlap (both geography and subject matter) between this book and Legendborn was so interesting to think about while reading. 
- The tension in this one is so powerful, especially with hiding Ewan! 
- The dynamic between Marlie and her white family was so powerful and tragic, especially between her and her sister.
