hopeful inspiring fast-paced

4.0

A poem full with hope. I myself have a hard time imagining that the US will be united the way Gorman says. But the inspiration and hope she conveys is maybe what is needed.

4.0

En reflekterande bok som djupdyker i relationer. Välskriven och, som titeln antyder, lägger fokuset på detaljerna i huvudkaraktärens relationer.
