On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong
5.0
It was like reading a long poem; I could hear my heart crying in joy with every passing page.
I took my time with this book reading one thing at a time. The characters of the story developed slowly and cautiously, while the words were playing a beautiful melody in the background.
With his words, Ocean Vuong takes us to a world where he controls how we see and feel things.
It was like I jumped off a tall building, but the the journey from the top was so beautiful and soothing that it took over the pain that the landing caused.
