I received a gifted copy and am providing a review.
This book pulled me in immediately. As soon as I started to read
it, I knew I would hardly be able to put it down. The story of the Hadfields is
one of a family back in the late 1980s, growing up poor but not knowing it and
making the most of what they had. Sloan didn’t know she was poor, all she knew
was she had a mom, a dad, and her brother Ridge. Like any teenager with hopes
and dreams, Sloan took off and never looked back.
The fascination with crows throughout this book is what intrigued
me. The author drops many interesting facts about crows. Sloan’s perseverance
to find out the truth about what happened also intrigued me. Sloan is the kind
of person who doesn’t give up and I appreciate that about her character. I also
like the character Noah, who was Sloan’s best friend back when they were
growing up, even though their friendship crossed a barrier back then. I
appreciate the fact that Sloan’s parents did the best they could for their
kids, like any parents do. I even appreciated Felicity who is a very colorful
character.
To me, the characters in this book are very relatable, anywhere
from what they went through as kids to the music they liked, even the TV shows
they watched back in that time period. I definitely would not hesitate to read
more of this author’s work.
