My review
I was absolutely enthralled by this book! It had so many twists and turns and I as so engrossed in it. Learning about Yalina, the main character and the relationships she formed were an important part of this book I believe. The writing style was amazing and read so fluently that I couldn’t put this down.
I would love to read more about the main character Yalina and what she did next.
