pickA tender, beautiful meditation on loss, grief and healing. The verse format works wonderfully in its simplicity and every word is sharp and pristine and perfectly chosen.

pickThis was my first verse novel, so I wasn't sure it I would take to it. I finished it in one sitting and it was glorious. It's the story of a young girl in Australia who, surrounded by death, tries in her own way to make death beautiful. I loved it. It's one of the most beautiful things I've read this year.
With this one, I've completed the NetGalley reviewathon and I'm now over 80% :)

A coming if age novel written in Prose (a first for me). It was a very quick read, I might have to look into more novels written in this form. And how about that cover!!

#BookMail Pt2 is #TheYAChronicles July box which was Creature Companions. I love the Six Of Crows pin & vinyl sticker(which is already on my iPad!), the panda eye mask is adorable, but the candle, while it‘s very pretty, smells very soapy & the unicorn necklace I can‘t wear coz allergies.💁🏻♀️The book is a #loveozya novel told in verse. Set in a small Australian town in the 60s, Lottie is a girl fascinated with death after her mother‘s passing.
