A moving story that felt very introspective while also commenting on our world and society as a whole. Heartbreaking yet hopeful in equal measure. I felt the book dragged a bit in the middle which I think the slower pace in that sec ion may have been intentional given the context of the book but it still pulled my attention out of the story a bit.
Graphic: Xenophobia and War
Moderate: Death of parent
