so-soA different read for a YA book, I would recommend it to young people looking for a meatier modern read. The two distinct stories are both wildly different and interesting. This book didn't have the flow I like, so it took real dedication to get into. The story is genuinely interesting, so there were certainly parts that had me flipping pages, but overall it isn't one I flew through. I love the character study aspect of this book.
Georgia, an English teenager, trying to survive school and get through drone competitions she is no longer interested in. When tragedy hits, she is force to re-evaluate life, finding new interest in the political activism group her sister's boyfriend is in. Julius is the nephew of A state governor in Nigeria, and son of a famous mega-church founder. While he lives in a mansion surrounded by guards, people around him live less than a dollar a day.
