I've heard such wonderful things about this book over and over again but when I read the synopsis I didn't think it would do anything for me, but I was SO wrong. I was brought to tears. I've never read a book-in-verse and I enjoyed this layout so much. I think this story can resonate with anyone and is a great representation for females, Latino/a/x individuals, people who are religious, who aren't religious, who are maybe healing from some religious or generational trauma. Acevedo does a fantastic job of telling a relatable story. I can't wait to check out the audio book version.
