My Name Is Venus Black

by Heather Lloyd

Nothing is as it appears. It’s like that with space. Objects that look round might not be, and stars that look close to each other might be billions of miles apart. And it’s the same with people. Only instead of standing too far away to see the truth, you’re probably standing too close.

Never assume you can take back anything. Never assume you have time to face facts later. And never underestimate the power of a parent’s betrayal.
