Looking for Lucie by Amanda Addison

inspiring lighthearted mysterious reflective

4.0

Thanks to @TheWritesReads and @NeemTreePress for having me on this book tour. 

I recently finished reading a book that tells the story of Nav and Lucie, two young adults who meet each other while receiving their A-Level results. Lucie, who sees herself as caramel-skinned, had recently spent some money on a DNA test because she looks different from her white-skinned family.

I was captivated by Nav and Lucie's journey of self-discovery as they explored their inner thoughts and their families' differences. As the book progresses, we also read about the perspectives of Nav and Lucie's mothers, which was interesting as we saw how far they went to keep certain truths hidden from their children.

The book addresses real-world issues such as the rights of children, their heritage, and what information should or can be shared with them. It also raises the question of whether a non-biological parent has the right to decide what is best for their child. Overall, it was a thought-provoking and engaging read that left me reflecting on the importance of family and identity.
