"It's a tragic story about a mixed race family whose cherished daughter Lydia is found dead after drowning in a lake. The author masterfully weaves the complicated world of their small family in the 1970s. It’s a story of failed dreams and not fitting in. Celeste is truly a wonderful writer. The writing is immersive and beautifully worded. The book stays with you."—rabbitprincess
