"In diversity, there is beauty and there is strength." Welcome back dear readers, I recently came across this sublime work by Tonga Victoria and totally enjoyed reading it. Being a supreme sightseer, I myself enjoy coming across with new cultural aspects and I was really delighted to read about a totally new culture and it's story. This is the foremost novel from the trilogy with a very engaging plot. The story revolves around these prominent terms- Polynesian culture, bloodline and family tree in the beam of certain secret organizations, spying, commercialism and investigation. The story is moulded precisely with the cultural aspects.
The lead character is Sam, who lives in a family keenly attached to their culture, she has to be very alert while portraying herself before their relatives and this family story continues where, further there is an addition of some new age issues, the position of women in their family and the other bloodline aspects influenced by monetary figures and at last how do they stay glued to their culture.
I loved reading this book, I am a very curious person who loves to know and dig more about new places and cultural dimensions and I really loved exploring how author described the cultural practices she has witnessed. The plot and storyline is really unique and the message to stay true and attached to your roots forever is really beautiful and heart-warming.
Honestly, I would love to explore the another one in this trilogy.
I would recommend you to read this delightful story, this is totally not tricky start it once I'm sure you'll develop a great taste for it. The young curious minds will really admire this book and will eagerly wait for the second one. Go ahead and read it out, you'll simply savor the story.
