Reviews for The Whole Story of a Half Girl by Veera Hiranandani:
"In Hiranandani’s debut novel, Sonia’s struggles are painfully realistic, as she wrestles with how to identify herself, how to cope with her family’s problems, and how to fit in without losing herself. True to life, her problems do not wrap up neatly, but Sonia’s growth is deeply rewarding in this thoughtful and beautifully wrought novel." Publisher's Weekly
"I finished this book yesterday and I highly recommend it. Growing up, there were never any books with characters that were as mixed as me and as conflicted as me." Samantha A., Amazon review
"My 10 yr old daughter really enjoyed reading this book, so much so that I read it too. It address some Middle School topics like fitting in while also remaining true to oneself but in a new and refreshing light." Wilson, Amazon review
