Found on the small press prose shelf at Powell's. I keep picking up these collage-style hybrid books that are impossible to categorize and I'm really into them. A few pages in, thought, how have I not heard of Lily Hoang before? I don't want to miss whatever she publishes next.

I need to be better about reading things that are poetry or nontraditional prose. I read it really fast, but I should go back and savor more. I really liked this book, and I look forward to rereading passages later.

This tried very hard to be In the Dream House but didn’t succeed. That might be unfair as this was probably conceptualized before its publication but it just pales in comparison.

It also tries very hard to warrant a place on my “magical atmosphere” tag but isn’t quite up to snuff.

Absolutely one of the most gorgeous books I have ever read in my life! I'm going to recommend reading this to everyone I know now!

This is one of those artsy books that i would love if i wasnt expected to analyze it for class.
