Why, oh, why, did I wait so long to read this book?

This was gorgeous. The intersection of cultures, of dangers, of normalities, the complications of love, family, dreams, and futures, of whether you have any of those, and how hard you hold on to any/all of them when you do. I fell in love with Camino and Yahaira as two very different people, and my heart shattered to watch them go through their loss and discovery of each other, and pieced itself together at the end in a way I hadn't thought possible at all.

This book is so, so, so good.

And that's before we even get to it being written in poetry.
