I've been holding out on reading Acevedo's work, and now I wish I hadn't. With the exception of THREE instances of "letting go of breaths she didn't know she was holding", this was such a well-written and engaging story. Though I loved how Emoni was focused on her own journey, the romance portion was also really sweet
