I am in awe at how so much can be expressed with so few words. This book is beautiful and evokes feelings of longing in that achy way that I love. I read the book and then listened to the audiobook (read by the author. Pure poetry). I recommend both experiences. Beautiful.
Thanks to NetGalley and the FSG team for this arc!
This was brilliant. A love story told through linear poems. Typically I find poetry collections somewhat disjointed, but this story flowed so beautifully, describing the highs and lows of two significant relationships. I loved the prose and enjoyed the content. I will definitely read more from this author!

i felt that the spare prose in this book outshined the couplets which is unfortunate given the title

This is an intriguing little book, which manages to split the differenced between poetry and prose and doesn't get irritating (except for the rhyming couplets at times but I can forgive Ms. Millner for that). This piece ends up being about Ms. Millner realizing she's bi, breaking up with her long term male partner over it, and her first lesbian relationship, Definitely worth picking up when it comes out in February.
