PositiveThe New York Times Book ReviewThroughout the book, Owusu writes poignantly about belonging and assimilation ... But the connective tissue of the book is the near-constant guilt she experiences as she grapples with identity and her willingness to erase the most vibrant parts of herself in an attempt to belong ... Owusu is unflinching in examining herself, which is commendable, but her self-reflection can veer toward the melodramatic and her repeated ruminations don’t yield further clarity ... In the end, Owusu ultimately answers what home is. Her definition is pure and restorative to read.
