an amazing collection of stories and poetry disguised as a novel. very emotionally striking and easy to digest without taking away from the meaning. simultaneously eye-opening to how cruel the world can be and inspiring to see the beams of good. relatable, but not for expected reasons. overall lovely story and powerful main character.
