Well, this one was not what I was expecting and not in a good way. There were so many issues that I had with this book. Let's start a list
1) There was so much hate throughout the whole entire book. I understand that that was the attitude of the British back (I am NOT supporting it) then but it was completely unnecessary and over the top to have racism on every other page. There was no point in including that much and it added nothing to the story.
2) This is advertised as a Christian middle-grade book and she prays a number of times throughout. Alright, I have no issues with that. However, I did not like what was included after the prayers. It was something along the lines of, "But God didn't answer her prayers, ___ did." Just no.
3) And finally, as I mentioned before, this is advertised as a Christian middle-grade book. Keep that in mind. A random person appeared for a scene of the book by the name of Charles Darwin. Yes, The Charles Darwin and he have a lecture on evolution and Darwinism and the likes of that. Please don't advertise this as a Christian book if the contents are completely against doctrine.
Note: In the physical copy of the book, the font is extremely small -- smaller or on par with adult fiction. I found myself not able to actually read the font and ended up reading an e-copy of the book. Just keep that in mind if you do decide to pick this one up.
That's all I have to say for this review and I will not be reading anything else by the author.

Rating: 1.5/5
Romance: n/a
Language: n/a
Spiritual: MC raised as Christian and Muslim, Darwinism
Violence: Her parents died, racism, bullying

*I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All thoughts are my own and a positive review was not required. ( )
