I devoured Watch Over Me by Nina Lacour in a matter of a few hours time. It’s a small quick read that packs a serious emotional punch.

Mila is a tortured soul that has aged out of foster care. She takes a job at farm to teach kids that have lived lives similar to hers. How the farm, people (and ghosts) change her - is her story. It’s lyrical really in so many ways. It’s heartbreaking and heartwarming all at once. It’s spooky yet deep and emotional also. It’s a story of redemption and coming to terms with the hand you’ve been dealt and learning to live with it. Learning how to live.

I highly recommend this read - it’s so different from most books. It’s a beautifully woven tale and so relatable. Mila is everyone. Loved it! Thanks for the opportunity to read and review this one.
