Watch Over Me - Nina Lacour Review

Image
I had no idea what this book was about going in to it, I just knew I wanted to read it because Nina Lacour writes such beautiful stories. This book follows Mila, a young girl who has aged out of the foster system and been given the opportunity to live and work on an isolated farm with other kids and adults who have also been through traumatic experiences like herself.  This book goes back and forth through Mila's memories of the past and her present and you see her find the family she needs. This book is also paranormal which I was not expecting (this is what happens when you don't read the summary) but I absolutely loved that. It really fit with the vibe of the book. Nina has such a way with words and creating atmospheres that this book truly feels like a cold autumn day. Every time I picked up this book, I was transported to a cold gloomy day and I just wanted to curl up with something warm. If you live in the northern hemisphere, now is the perfect time to pick up this book
