5.0

A poetic story mapping out a journey to self discovery through a first love and heartbreak. This book really hits home being a queer MexAmerican n just struggling to figure out my place and identity. The book leaves you asking yourself questions and reflecting on past memories. The author took difficult life experiences and wrote them in a way that made me want to try to see things in a different light. So that way I could try to find all the beauty hidden within the darkness.
