Review # 1 was written on 2016-08-21 00:00:00 Breton Henry Not nearly so good as Carrie's War, and obviously aimed at a YA audience, but it's a vivid description of the awkwardness, search for identity and belonging of boy growing into himself, making sense of his family history and his own sense of self as the people he loves change around him.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-09-06 00:00:00 Curtis Golladay Companion piece to Rebel on a Rock and The Outside Child. A story about feeling comfortable in your own skin and the various histories of ancestors that are the genetic makeup of a person, Plato never quite feels like he belongs anywhere until he realises that he, like oatmeal, is a good mixture of many positive things.
