"Hum if You Don't Know the Words" by Bianca Marais

4/5. Really sad, but equally powerful. One chapter in particular was punch-you-in-the-face good, as was the majority of the first half of the book. But the ending was just bad... it felt silly and unrealistic (a harsh juxtaposition from the rest of the story), and sort of rushed/thrown together. So, overall I have some very mixed feelings about this book.
