This book was definitely not what I was expecting at all! It took me through a roller-coaster of emotions and the story was so much darker and complex than I had anticipated.
It was a fantastically written book and the characters were written so well. I felt alot of anger towards leah in some points but then I also felt understanding of her actions and developed a soft spot for her. I especially loved Erin aswell, so sweet and innocent and just trying to hold her family together whilst it was falling apart. I felt deeply for the main character Cassie aswell, she had alot on her shoulders and so although she made some of the wrong decisions in parts all she wanted was answers and she didn't know who she could trust.
This is a story of family and trust and delves into some really important topics and has made me realise just how many problems there are within the care system.
I wouldn't necessarily say this is an easy read because it isn't at all. It's very emotional and broke my heart but it's a powerful story and there was some light at the end of the tunnel in the end, it's definitely worth the read but be prepared for the whirlwind of emotion!
