I loved this book. Please read it!! Although it takes places thousands of miles away from where I grew up in the USA, building a friendship in an unlikely but unmistakable soulmate made me feel so close to this story and to the author and her family's story. This was a book I simply couldn't read fast enough. Every page hooked me in and I felt truly sad when I had finished it. I wanted to continue and hear about Adele and Lottie's friendship as they grew into adulthood. Having visited Swaziland, it brought me back to many happy memories I made on my holiday there. I would highly recommend this book and recommend a visit to this wonderful country. While this book was not without excitement or terrifying situations, it was all worth it to see how this unlikely friendship, matched in the stars themselves, was able to provide the strength to seemingly overcome anything thrown their way.
