It starts out as being a child with that innocence, being naive and thinking that this time will be different. This collection of poetry can be described as "the story of a princess turned damsel turned queen" like the back of the book says.This is something that every female can relate to in one way or another.

You know a book will be great when it starts out mentioning Harry Potter and it continues to get better with each page you turn. And will probably be rereading parts of it, which doesn't happen with most books I read. Accessible poetry: yay! It's not a gentle read by any means-it's got trigger warnings for a reason-but it was compelling and enticing and I read the whole book in about 40 minutes. I will definitely be tracking down its sequel. Okay, I'm not sure I loved this book, but I liked it a lot and I'm glad I have a print copy. "I recognized it by how the words are spaced on the page." I was at a bus stop, and a woman walking by left her companion for a moment to dash over to me and tell me how much she loved this book. I really wasn't expecting it with a book of poetry, though, but that happened this afternoon with this one. I hadn't been expecting that, but then again, this happens with novels. I had a fun conversation with my seatmate, who recognized the book from the page layout-even though I was reading the ebook-and who told me how she'd read it and loved it. Last summer, I was on the bus from the Twin Cities to Milwaukee, and I was reading Eleanor & Park.
