On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong

4.25

challenging dark emotional reflective sad tense slow-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Yes

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This was like a novel length poem, it was just so beautifully written. The story itself is both heartwarming and gut wrenching at the same time. But I've come to expect that from Vuong.
