I really wanted to like this book. I love poetry, especially about harder subject matters. And historical fiction is definitely something I enjoy. But I don’t think I was a fan of the writing style. To have “normal” writing styles in between the poems was a bit confusing and honestly I’m still a little confused. My favorite part of the book was the historical facts the author put in the back 😅
