I had no clue what this book was about upon picking it up and didn't know it was in-verse as well. I have nothing bad to say about it. I think I'll have to reread it again after completing it since I know the ending and how it changes things with the new knowledge.
I will say it could be triggering to some (I was in a pretty serious car accident when I was 18, and the mention/descriptions of the one in the book kind of brought some of the trauma back but not enough for me to stop me from reading or have a negative reaction while reading. it could be different for others) and recommend checking content warnings just in case.
