A Place to Belong

Cover art
March 16, 2020 Morgan H says:
A powerful and thoughtful trip back in time that casts bittersweet light on one of the darkest corners of recent history.
Reeling from the treatment they endured in the internment camps of World War II America, a Japanese-American family renounces its American citizenship to move back to Hiroshima, unaware of the devastation inflicted by the atomic bomb.

I work in youth services and read books of all kinds, but I particularly love those that make me laugh, cry or go back in time. When I'm not working my way through all the teetering stacks of books in my house, I enjoy taking long walks with my dog, binge-watching TV shows and finding new ways to combine carbs and cheese.
