I am very thankful to receive a E-ARC from NetGalley! The Order of Things follows April as she experiences a great loss not too far into the novel. I found the pros of the poetry to be beautiful. Especially after this great loss. It kept me deep into April mind.

I while reading realized a little early on that it wouldn't truly be for me. But this is a middle grade novel, and I was wondering how the author Kaija Langley would deal with the turmoil in the mindset of a child. If the handling would be appropriate for a child, and where it falls on the middle grade spectrum. To my delight it fell perfectly in the in-between and handled every topic with ease. Everything was clear and helpful. I found April arc inspiring but also, I could see it being helpful for other kids going through the same thing. 

I sometimes feel that authors can't write children properly in 1st person. Yet Langley proves that it can be done. Due to it not being exactly the story I thought it would be I landed on a 3.75 but would highly recommend!
