    This novel in verse is split between two half sisters who discover each other’s existence after their father dies in a plane crash. Both find themselves struggling with very similar struggles of belonging, familial and cultural responsibility, and self imagine and worth. Their bath to each other and a sense of sisterhood is so beautifully woven through their dual pov sections. I enjoyed this very much and will be reading more from Acevedo.
