This was really great!! I think the format of the story being told in verse as an ode to Claire’s car was so interesting and different than anything I’ve ever read! There was a lot of Claire’s inner thoughts that I could very much relate to and there was also a lot I couldn’t and I think that’s one of my favorite things in a book! Being able to see little pieces of myself while also learning new things about how other people’s brains work. Claire’s indecision between Sofia & Pen stressed me out in parts but besides that, I honestly really enjoyed this! I especially loved getting to see her relationship with her brother as they bonded more and more throughout the story, and getting to see how much they loved each other was really beautiful!
