I wish I knew how to review this book. I usually enjoy YA books, but................ I wanted to rate this 2.5. oh well. I understand the horror of human trafficking and the people who do it are not human. I was able to see and understand the innocence of Lakshmi and the ugliness of Mumtaz but only found the story ok.
