5.0
i started this book, barely read a page and immediately thought “am i actually ready for this?”. this kind of writing you need to process and appreciate properly!
ocean vuong is simply outstanding! or i just rarely encounter good books these days. it’s giving me sad nostalgia, vivid images in my head, impossible to look away from the text, i want it to engulf me.
this book is so amazing, impossible to forget and will shatter your heart.
