* First Reading:

Wow this hit home. (pun intended?)

I was going to add here all the quotes that shook me. But then I realized I'd be copying the whole book if I attempted so.
Instead I'll link a spoken poetry performance of Elhillo, and if you connect with that- you'll love the book:

* Second Reading:

This book is phenomenal. It was an experience to read. It's definitely one of my all time favorites!

I have so much to say, about the importance of representation and seeing yourself in a poem. I'll be writing a full review with pictures and everything later.
