So beautiful. 

Mateo spoke to me so much as a character. I used to be so much like him when I was younger, and know the struggle of being afraid to live life the way you want to.

The interwoven side characters throughout were a nice change of pace, and gave wider context and natural world building to Mateo and Rufus' story.
