dark hopeful informative reflective sad tense fast-paced

4.5

Allison is truly an incredible person who has faced the worst one could imagine. This was heartbreaking, gut-wrenching and inspiring all at once. I want to make it clear my rating is simply a reflection of how the writing made me feel not Allison's journey itself I give this a 4.5 only because certain topics being discussed in as much details as it was, was too much for me and this is partially my own fault for not properly preparing myself for this and I likely would give this a 5 had I properly gotten myself mentally ready for the weight of this read but I unfortunately did not and that is entirely my own fault.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 22%.

I have decided to DNF this read, I got about 50% through, and have realised that now is simply not the time so in other words this is a soft DNF I think I will come back to this in the future when I think it will better suit my mood but for now I'll be stopping. I don't want to force myself to read this and end up not liking it for no good reason. In terms of rating I obviously can't properly rate it but from what I did read, this is a good and interesting if it continued to be at the same level through to the end I think this could easily have been a 3.5 or 3.75 however since I'm not finishing it now I will refrain from actually rating it.

An extremely unique and interesting way of telling a story, for some reason despite knowing it was musical esc I didn't expect actual singing. The songs were very well-done and the narrators were great too. I felt it ended a bit abruptly and that it would have benefited greatly from being a little longer. I had a good time and it was a fun listen I'd definitely recommend to people who like musicals!

Thank you to Netgalley for giving me access to this arc!

While this wasn't my cup of tea oersonally I do think people who like poetry especially more comical and in some cases seemingly non-sensical poetry will have an amazing time with this one.

This wasn't entirely for me I felt it was a bit all over the place and a bit bizarre.

Amazingly written, this book is eye-opening. Every bit is direct and to the point while still being considerate and not crass. Highly recommend this one!
