A lovely book that's creatively inspiring. I kept feeling the need to write and tell my own stories while reading this. I would give it a perfect score just for that (and the diverse characters), but it was hard for me to read. Usually I can read fast, but this book had a lot of sentences that kept running on and on without pause. I'm certain it's a stylistic choice, but personally, it made reading harder to understand and slower as a result.
