most poetic & stunning book i have ever read. every sentence is gold, crafted so beautifully. i'm genuinely surprised my highlighter didn't die while reading, there were so many fantastic quotes. this book simultaneously broke my heart & healed it. there are so many extended motifs i love as well: the color pink, butterflies, flowers, singing/music, fire, the list goes on. Ocean Vuong is absolutely incredible. hands down one of the BEST books i have ever read. PLUS it's gay!
