I loved this book. People have been recommending it to me for years, and I finally got around to reading it. I've since recommended it to all of my friends and more or less everyone I know. If you're looking for something fun and lighthearted, but still packing an emotional punch, please please read this book.

Man, who does it like Ms. Sexton. A classic. I love confessional poetry.
That was a... memorable book. I'm fascinated by the portrayal of the story's "villains", and in an age of true crime podcasts and detective shows with insane popularity levels, I'm shocked it's not more mainstream.
