From the cover to the synopsis, this looks like a very interesting book! The cover is a perfect representation of the YA genre. I would pick this up if I saw it in the store. I am an adult, but occasionally like to read YA as a nice break from the regular adult genre. However, from past experiences, I realize that YA books can deliver the same gut punches if not more. I like the culturally diverse aspect of this story and would like to read more.
