Definitely top 3 of my favorite books ever. You can read it within 2 hours. It is formatted like poetry but I think that makes it more digestible. The end hits you like a ton of bricks.

Wow. Just wow. This novel in verse was so compelling and well written, I couldn’t put it down. Highly recommend!
