Holy shit, this book is amazing. I cried and was taken by surprise at the twist at the end. I was just as confused as Moth until everything was explained. I've never read anything from this author, but wow, I need to read more from her 1000%. 
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.
