Moth and Sani set out on a summer road trip. Moth wants to know why Sani has to take pills not realizing that they are to treat his depression. Sani has taken Moth on this trip to reveal a secret and to say goodbye to her. This is a beautifully told story. I love the writing style.

Holy shit, this book is amazing. I cried and was taken by surprise at the twist at the end. I was just as confused as Moth until everything was explained. I've never read anything from this author, but wow, I need to read more from her 1000%. 
I had no clue what this book was about upon picking it up and didn't know it was in-verse as well. I have nothing bad to say about it.  I think I'll have to reread it again after completing it since I know the ending and how it changes things with the new knowledge.
I will say it could be triggering to some (I was in a pretty serious car accident when I was 18, and the mention/descriptions of the one in the book kind of brought some of the trauma back but not enough for me to stop me from reading or have a negative reaction while reading. it could be different for others) and recommend checking content warnings just in case.

It’s fine, I don’t mind being nothing to no one, unrooted on every soil my feet trespass on.


Definitely unexpected.
