This is an INCREDIBLE book. I didn’t know anything about the writing style beforehand but the poetic style completely entranced me. What beautiful words, emotions, and imagery. This book has such a real story that I can relate to a bit with my own family and UGH so amazing. I feel close to these characters

I'm always deeply impressed when a story is told well in poem. This was beautiful.
