Girl Divided

A really enjoyable easy read. Far better than what I was expecting. I'm looking forward to reading the other books of Willow's I've already bought, she's written so many

Girl divided by willow rose.
Jetta is half black half white. There is a war on and the whites are splitting up the blacks. They are taking them to the ghetto. Can anyone stop this war? Will jetta ever feel safe?
Omg an absolutely fantastic read with brilliant characters. A moving story. I really felt for jetta.
I really hated loviatar. I was rooting for tyler oya and shango. I love a book where when you read it you feel as though you are with them. That's how I felt with girl divided. A must read and highly recommended. 5*.

In post apocalyptic time, a baby is born with a half black face and half white. The black say the baby is evil - a demon and the white say worse. She has a destiny and doesn't realize it. What is her destiny? What will she do when she knows what it is? She has questions about herself including who were her parents? Why didn't they raise her? Will she find her answers?

Bigotry is still in existence --sadly it hasn't disappeared. I was surprised to find bigotry such a major issue as I always have hope that it wouldn't be. I thought Jetta to be a strong woman as she dwelt with issues that I thought were difficult. I liked this novel but at times, I would get confused as I didn't really understand the society she lived in. It's a thought provoking story.

GIRL DIVIDED. by Willow Rose.
A couple black, a beautiful daughter, Jetta was half white, on one side. Growing up with superstition, could it be true, that she was evil. Her mother never stopped, people in church, kept saying she was evil. She was a survivor, to the happenings in the world. Blacks and whites dividing the world. She found a place in West Africa, truce had been signed now, she couldn’t go back. A riveting story, of someone who is different in her looks, and how it can effect people. Given ARC by Net Galley for my voluntary review and my honest opinion.

Girl Divided is YA dystopia with a twist!
Jetta is a born in a divided world with a divided face. Jetta was born with one side of her face white and the other side black which is extremely dangerous because the world is at war with black against white. As Jetta most live like the Jews of World War II, death seems to follow her. It is not until she learns her roots that things make sense in her life.
I really like the mythological twist to this story. While there are references to more well-known mythology (Norse first comes to mind), I learned mythology from other areas such as Africa and Finland. I love learning these stories and I took time after reading the novel to look up more about the tales portrayed in the book.
While the story was dealt less with social commentary than I expected this isn't a bad thing. As the story focuses on the mythological side, there was no need to add an extra heaviness to it. It was an enjoyable adventure that I would continue.

This was at times an absolutely terrifying story because it's so *believable*. The circumstances surrounding Jetta's life, the world she is raised in, is so easy to imagine becoming reality today. It's well written with a good pace and grabs you from the first page. Anyone who loves sci-fi and dystopian mashups will love this book.

I have read several books by Willow Rose and have always enjoyed. As much as i enjoyed reading this book, i do love to read Willow Rose's horror stories so much more. Nonetheless, i do thank Netgalley and the Publishers for my copy and this is my honest review.

Wonderful characters. Interesting plot. Vivid descriptions. Simply a GREAT read!
