A beautifully constructed portrait of one young woman growing into her own that will move readers to deeply consider the very same questions Nigeria must answer for herself.
Comprising equal parts mystery and tender coming-of-age story, this work adeptly pulls readers into Emmy’s journey as she considers the many facets of growing up and knowing the ones you love.
Readers of Pet will relish this dive back into the origins of Bitter’s creative power and come to deeply understand the price paid to ease the injustices of the past. Yet this book more than stands on its own, and will likely resonate with an even broader audience than its companion.
Readers will be left wishing they could accompany Ada as she pursues her passion and finds her way to a genuine relationship, while left hopeful and inspired by her beautifully-told story.
Myracle’s depiction of Paul, his deep friendship with Roby, his relationship with his mom, and his first love with Natalia (a strong and multidimensional young woman) will snag readers, both reluctant and voracious, as they root for each of them to make it through the difficult realities of life, high school, and love.
Despite some lapses, a solid debut with evocative imagery that will fit well into a collection in need of stories featuring teens grappling with unhealthy relationships or demons in their past.
