LOVE IT!! was such a good read and I love how the metaphors, themes and phrases were repeated consistently but woven in so cleanly with Eli’s thoughts that it was never boring to hear those phrases again and again. So cool how everything connected in the end. Awesome writing style really encompasses the endless stream of thoughts in Eli’s head with long sporadic sentences.
