fuck. this was so beautiful and so heartbreaking and i am ✨emotional✨ it was lyrically gorgeous and reading it felt like burning and falling in the tumultuous battle of my heart. it was so pretty and way too short for the amount i loved it. this book is best devoured and savoured, held almost as close to my heart as my favourite verse novel “clap when you land”. i loved this, if you couldn’t tell :,)

edit: lowering my rating slightly because this is kinda forgettable? i know i enjoyed it, i just can’t remember why <3
